And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
This is what my Father wants: everyone who really sees me for who I am and puts their trust in me gets eternal life. And when the final day comes? I'm bringing them back to life.
See Jesus, trust Jesus, live forever, that's literally the whole plan.
