What is abundant life that the Bible speaks of in John 10:10?
The Greek word for life in this verse is zōē.
The word abundant means over and above, beyond what is measurable...where is gets really good, is the meaning of zōē.
It's so good...are you ready???
A. of the absolute fullness of life, both essential and ethical, which belongs to God, and through him both to the hypostatic "logos" and to Christ in whom the "logos" put on human nature
B. life real and genuine, a life active and vigorous, devoted to God, blessed, in the portion even in this world of those who put their trust in Christ, but after the resurrection to be consummated by new accessions (among them a more perfect body), and to last for ever.
Jesus may we experience your fullness of joy and rest in your abundance of life.
