Life's Greatest Choice Series

Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014

What is eternal life? Most would say, “Living forever.” The only thing wrong with that is some are so miserable right now that the idea of existing forever is eternal misery. What is eternal life? It is knowing God; it is knowing Jesus Christ.
