Is God's eternal life actually in believers now, and does it last forever?
Yes. The eternal life of God Himself has become part and parcel of every believer, and it will carry throughout all eternity. It is beyond human comprehension, but this eternal life is appropriated by faith, and believers are headed to that infinite eternal period.
Les explains that the eternal life of God Himself has become part and parcel of every one of us who believe, and it is going to carry throughout all eternity. He says this is beyond human comprehension, as incomprehensible as the outer edges of space. To illustrate God's eternalness and infiniteness, he points to the size of our sun—it would take a million, 300,000 earths to equal it—and the star Centaurus, which is far larger still. That infinite God and eternity is where believers are headed: an infinite eternal period of eternal life. Time as we know it may not continue, but these are eternal things without dimension, beyond human comprehension, and we appropriate them by faith, not as kooky stuff someone dreamed up.
