[Romans 5:8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. E veryone who trusts in Him has eternal life. [John 3:16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. L ife that is eternal can never be lost.
