What Does John 17:3 Mean?
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
What It Means
This verse shows that eternal life is not mainly about living forever after we die. It is about knowing God the Father and Jesus in a real, personal relationship that starts now. That connection brings daily peace and purpose, because when we talk with God, trust Jesus, and follow His ways, ordinary moments gain meaning and we handle stress with more hope.
