Soul survival

John 5:25
"I tell you for certain that the time will come, and is already here, when all of the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God. And those who listen to it will live! The Father has the power to give life and He has given that same power to the Son.  And He has given the Son the right to judge everyone,  because He is the Son of Man."  A peanut has a shell that provides covering for the true essence, the real living force inside. We are like the peanut in a way. Scripture tells us that we are a living spirit. (Made in God's image, for God is a Spirit ) we live in a body and we possess a soul.  Our body is like the peanut shell. It does eventually wear out. But the good news is that our spirits,  like the actual peanut itself,  are the true life. When we leave our bodies we, our spirits, still live on. Hence "Eternal life " can be ours if we believe.  Have faith children. God loves you.
