John Calvin once said, "...this is everlasting life: to wit, to know God the Father, and to receive Christ as our only Savior."Here John Calvin partially quotes John 17:3 and then tacks on the the suffix about receiving Christ as the only Savior. As you probably know, the fact that Jesus Christ is the Savior of sinners is emphasized heavily throughout the New Testament. That He comes into the world with the name or title of "Savior" ought to be a constant reminder to us that we cannot save ourselves.
"Isn't that obvious John", you may be thinking. Don't worry I am going somewhere with this.
