"HE THAT HATH THE SON."

JOHN tells us, in his first letter (1 John 5:12), "He that hath the Son hath life." And, that we may be sure that there is no life outside of Christ, the apostle immediately adds, " He that hath not the Son of God hath not life."
Man, at his best and in his healthiest condition, is rapidly hurrying to the tomb; he is in a dying condition all the time. And when in the resurrection he is awakened, unless " he hath the Son," it is only to a mortal life, that he and all his companions in sin may together receive their sentence and be forever destroyed in the " second death." The Scripture proof of these statements is both clear and abundant.
But " he that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life." John 3:36. He " believeth on the Son;" and when Jesus comes, " though he were dead, yet shall he live." And at the Master's coming the word is, " Whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." John 11:25, 26.
