Eternal life is Now

Some believe eternal life starts when you reach our Father's side in heaven, but I believe eternal life starts the moment we take the step to be REAl followers of Christ. That decision can only be made by you, and God will help you shape your heart if you are willing to do everything for his Glory.

1 Peter 1:3-4
All praise to God; the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation and we have a priceless inheritance - an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you and undefiled, beyond the reach and change of decay.

God keeps the eternal life in heaven to protect it, but that eternal life is ours, so why walk in fear of death or troubles, when we know that what is happening right now is only temporary. Romans 8:32 says that God did not spare his own son but instead gave him to us, won't he give us everything else? It is through Christ Jesus that we have conquered death. For when we face problems or even death, it will just be like making another daily decision that leads you on a new path to life.
