Intimacy Builder: Tell about a teacher, parent, or someone else who had a great influence on you.

1 John 5: 11God has also said that he gave us eternal life and that this life comes to us from his Son. 12And so, if we have God's Son, we have this life. But if we don't have the Son, we don't have this life. (CEV)
1. If we have this life for eternity, how should we live our life on Earth?

John 10: 10A thief comes only to rob, kill, and destroy. I came so that everyone would have life, and have it in its fullest. Philippians 3: 10All I want is to know Christ and the power that raised him to life. I want to suffer and die as he did, 11so that somehow I also may be raised to life. Ephesians 5: 9.... Be good and honest and truthful, 10as you try to please the Lord.... 17Don't be stupid. Instead, find out what the Lord wants you to do. (CEV) 2. Describe ways in which you know Christ.

Ephesians 1: 10Then when the time is right, God will do all that he has planned, and Christ will bring together everything in heaven and on earth. 11God always does what he plans, and that's why he had Christ choose us(CEV)
3. Why would a wonderful & perfect God choose us to help Him?

Hebrews 2: 14We are people of flesh and blood. That is why Jesus became one of us. He died to destroy the devil, who had power over death. 15But he also died to rescue all of us who live each day in fear of dying. (CEV)
4. Describe what you believe Heaven is like.

John 17: 3Eternal life is to know you, the only true God, and to know Jesus Christ, the one you sent. John 11: 25Jesus then said, "I am the one who raises the dead to life! Everyone who has faith in me will live, even if they die. 26And everyone who lives because of faith in me will never really die. Do you believe this?" (CEV)

His names will be Wonderful Advisor and Mighty God, Eternal Father and Prince of Peace. 7His power will never end; peace will last forever. Matthew 1: 23"A virgin will have a baby boy, and he will be called Immanuel," which means "God is with us." (CEV)
