The word ‘perish’ sums up humanity’s biggest problem: we have all rejected God’s rule, and the penalty is God-forsaken death. But in his love, God sent Jesus, to rescue us. Jesus paid our penalty when he died on the cross and then he in victory over death. So now, if we receive Jesus as our rescuer and ruler, we gain ‘eternal life’ and have God’s forgiveness and friendship forever.
