“In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.” “In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.” “He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” “And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins.” “And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath He quickened together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses.” Our Lord Jesus Christ said that “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me,” and, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” He also said that “I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” “Christ, who is our life.” “I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
“Dead in trespasses and sins,”
With no hope that I could see,
But God’s dear Son took my place,
That I delivered might be.
