The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. So the reason I'm reading that is because I'm going back to Romans 6 in this preposition. Paul gave an argument. Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? He said, by no means. We died to sin. And then he gives a picture of what Jesus just said in John 12, 25.
I am he. Oh, I'm agreeing with you. That's where I was going. Because John 12 also, which we'll get to when Jesus replied in verse 23, the hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.
It's like the greatest difference in the world. You can die in your sins or you can get rid of sin, which is why he would later on say in Romans 8 through Jesus, 8, 3, and 4, he condemned sin in sinful man. I mean, he like condemned sin itself. And to go to the death part, you know, in 1 Corinthians 15, when he comes back, he will destroy, as the last enemy, physical death itself.
That's a perfect setup to this now because we're at a transition point within John 8. And I want to read this text because in my outline, I call this who's your daddy. And the reason I call it that was because there's this point where he says, even as he spoke, many put their faith in him. And then it starts in verse 31, says to the Jews who have believed him.
He declared himself as the redeemer of the human race from God and the spirit. And they are in agreement. And then it says, we accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his son, which is what he's doing in John 8. And the response is not going well at this time.
And that way, love is made complete, and we'll have confidence on the day of judgment because in this world, we are like him. And then 1 John 5, 6, which is very hard to understand, I think the framework that we've presented, this whole thing that's coming from John 8, kind of gives you now what this means because he says in 1 John 5, 6, Right after he said, who is it that overcomes the world?
But John's got it now because he says, if anyone acknowledged that Jesus is the son of God, God lives in him and he in God. And now we're back to the steadfast love of the Lord where it says, and so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God and God in him.
