Based on Christian Doctrine 111, eternal or everlasting life is the indescribable blessedness and glory of the children of God in heaven with God. It already begins here in a heart that believes in Jesus Christ, but it only becomes perfect in the eternal rest of the saints. There they are saved from all trouble and evil. They see God face to face and praise Him for eternity, which has no ending. “However, as it is written: No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for them that love him.” (1 Corinthians 2:9). Attaining eternal life is a person’s main purpose in life. That is possible when God awakens a person to their sins, and they believe them forgiven through the preaching of forgiveness of sins in Jesus’ name and blood. Pardoned sinners who have heard and believed this forgiving message preach this gospel. “And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away” (Revelation 21:3,4)
