If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God which He has testified of His Son. He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. (1 John 5:9-13)
There are times when we all have doubts concerning God and His promises. It is quite normal in this crazy world. We experience so much turmoil, trials, and tribulations. It must have been the same during John's day from his writings above.
So, just in case you have any doubts today, think back on what you know. Even those in Jesus' day had some doubts (Mark 9:24). If you have repented of your sinful nature and sincerely confessed Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then you indeed have eternal life.
Keep believing. Keep trusting. Keep living. Believe it and live it out . . . so others may know as well!
