Who Will Escape Eternal Death? (GNT)

Those Who Believe In Jesus                                             John 3:16, 18, 36; John 11:25-26
16  For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life. 
18  Those who believe in the Son are not judged; but those who do not believe have already been judged, because they have not believed in God's only Son.
36  Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not have life, but will remain under God's punishment.
 John 11:25-26 
25  Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will live, even though they die; 
26  and those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

Those Who Are Raised With Christ                                  Romans 6:5-11
Romans 6:5-11
5    For since we have become one with him in dying as he did, in the same way we shall be one with him by being raised to life as he was. 
6    And we know that our old being has been put to death with Christ on his cross, in order that the power of the sinful self might be destroyed, so that we should no longer be the slaves of sin. 
7    For when we die, we are set free from the power of sin. 
8    Since we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. 
9    For we know that Christ has been raised from death and will never die again—death will no longer rule over him. 
10  And so, because he died, sin has no power over him; and now he lives his life in fellowship with God. 
11  In the same way you are to think of yourselves as dead, so far as sin is concerned, but living in fellowship with God through Christ Jesus.

Those Who Keep The Word Of God                                John 8:51
51  I am telling you the truth: whoever obeys my teaching will never die.”

Those Who Choose The Narrow Road                              Matthew 7:14
14  But the gate to life is narrow and the way that leads to it is hard, and there are few people who find it.

Those Who Are Kind To The Needy                                 Matthew 25:34-40
Matthew 25:34-40
34  Then the King will say to the people on his right, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father! Come and possess the kingdom which has been prepared for you ever since the creation of the world. 
35  I was hungry and you fed me, thirsty and you gave me a drink; I was a stranger and you received me in your homes, 
36  naked and you clothed me; I was sick and you took care of me, in prison and you visited me.’ 
37  The righteous will then answer him, ‘When, Lord, did we ever see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink? 
38  When did we ever see you a stranger and welcome you in our homes, or naked and clothe you? 
39  When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?’ 
40  The King will reply, ‘I tell you, whenever you did this for one of the least important of these followers of mine, you did it for me!’

Those Who Do Not Worship The Beast                             Revelation 20:4-6
Revelation 20:4-6
4    Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given the power to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been executed because they had proclaimed the truth that Jesus revealed and the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image, nor had they received the mark of the beast on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and ruled as kings with Christ for a thousand years. 
5    (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over.) This is the first raising of the dead. 
6    Happy and greatly blessed are those who are included in this first raising of the dead. The second death has no power over them; they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they will rule with him for a thousand years.
