For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” “Yes Lord,” she told him. I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.” John 11:25-27
