life(-time)

“Life” From Dictionary of Biblical Words:

This word is used Scripturally to describe the present existence of both saved and unsaved; but as regards the future it is only used in connection with believers. The life of unbelievers after the second resurrection is known as the second death. It is generally used to mean eternal life.

“Life Eternal” From Dictionary of Biblical Words:

does not mean mere perpetuity of existence, but refers to Christ, and the life He gives to those who believe. The apostle John in both gospel and epistle applies the phrase to Christ Himself; we receive it from Him. He, indeed, is our life. Eternal life begins in a believer the moment he is born again (perpetuity of existence he had before in distinction from the beasts that perish), and will never end. He cannot lose it (John 10). It is a holy, sinless life. In proportion as we live in the power of it are we like Christ. Its true sphere is heaven.

“Life, Resurrection” From Dictionary of Biblical Words:

This is eternal life looked at in a doctrinal sense. The phrase implies a good deal, meaning that the life we receive is not from Jesus as on earth, but from Christ in resurrection. Hence we are one with a risen Christ, and our life has no link with earth (save the mortal bodies that confine it) but with the Lord in heaven. This, then, must be regarded as our home, as the place whence all life comes, and the earth as a strange country in which we are sojourning, seeking to show some thing of the power and beauty of this new and divine life.
