Day 120. How should you live in light of this promise of unending life? (2024)

Today is day 120 and we are on the Third Article of the Apostles' Creed. Today we are on the eighteenth line: “And the Life Everlasting”.

120. How should you live in light of this promise of unending life?

I should live in joyful expectation of the fullness of my transformation, soul and body, into the likeness of Christ. In the midst of suffering or in the face of hostility and persecution, I am sustained by the hope of a new heaven and earth, freed from Satan, evil, suffering, and death. (Psalm 21:1–7; John 14:1–7; Romans 13:11–14; 2 Corinthians 4:16–5:11; Philippians 3:7–21; 1 Peter 1:3–9; 5:6–11)

We will conclude today with The Collect for The First Sunday of Advent found on page 598 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
