HAVE SON, HAVE LIFE.

"The [person] putting his faith in the Son of God has the witness given in his own case. The [person] not having faith in God has made him a liar, because he has not put his faith in the witness given, which God as witness has given concerning his Son. And this is the witness given, that God gave us everlasting life, and this life is in his Son. He that has the Son has this life; he that does not have the Son of God does not have this life. I write these things that YOU may know that YOU have life everlasting, YOU who put YOUR faith in the name of the Son of God."
1 John. 5:10-13. NWT [Watchtower Bible]
