Responsive Questions
1. eternal life
2. death is not the end of our existence!
3. John wanted to let his readers know that Jesus felt human emotions...He was fully man, just as He was fully God.
4. God experiences grief at His creation...because He never intended that we should have to deal with sin and it's effects. It is only right and natural to grieve what is not natural in God's eternal plan. But real faith also understands that God is still in control and that one day, He will wipe away all tears. That He has provided an eternal home for all who put their trust in His Son, Jesus Christ.
