Summary
Eternal life is defined not as a long life, but as intimately knowing God the Father and Jesus Christ. The message emphasizes that this deep knowledge is achieved by diligently seeking God, comparing it to a 'God rush' rather than a physical gold rush. Ultimately, knowing God's plans for one's life—which are for welfare and hope—requires calling upon Him in prayer and searching for Him with all one's heart.
