DAILY READINGS: Judges 10:6:1-11:28; Isaiah 31:1-9; 1 Cor. 9:24-10:13

To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. Revelation 2:7

Salvation is relational. It is more than a creed or organization. Knowing the Son of God as one’s Saviour and Lord brings eternal life. “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent” (John 17:3). Beginning in this world for those who receive Him, this incorruptible, glorious life continues eternally. He endured the cross, an accursed tree, so that we might feed on this blessed tree of life forever. —Keith Keyser

True tree of life! of Thee I eat and live;
Who eateth of Thy fruit shall never die;
’Tis Thine the everlasting health to give,
The youth and bloom of immortality. —Horatius Bonar
