Do you have everlasting peace with God?

If you are born again, then you certainly do.
Romans 5 tells you, that you have "peace with God".

How did this happen? ??
It happened because Jesus gained this for you, by His "eternal redemption".
1.) Jesus's shed His blood.
2.) Jesus's Blood is God's Blood.
This is why You have Peace with God..

God has shed His own Blood to resolve all that was keeping you and God from being together for eternity as "ONE".
That is why God came down here, as Jesus.
He came down here to resolve your sin issue, as that is THE issue that GOD had resolve, because you could not do it for yourself.

So, God came as Jesus The Christ, and bled and died and rose again, to resolve your sin issue and redeem you and make you His Own.
Colossians 2:13 says ALL your sin has been dealt with by Jesus, and Romans 4:8 says that God will never again charge you or hold you accountable in eternity, for your sin.
And why is that?
Its because God has already Judged HIMSELF on the Cross for all the sin of the world..... John 3:16, and taken care of it for us.
He applies it, to those who by faith believe, yet the offer of salvation is always for ALL.

So, with sin dealt with, and with God's righteousness being given to you in place of your sin, "The Gift of Righteousness"" = you are now 'MADE RIGHTEOUS" by God Himself......born again.
And that settles your righteousness issue, as you can't be more righteous the God's Righteousness has made you.
And all that Saith, is why you have eternal Peace with GOD.
Its because of what God has done for you, because He loves you.

Now, when the devil comes to your mind, or to this Thread, he is going to try to get you to believe that God's resolution of your issues, regarding sin and righteousness, are not quite resolved. The devil is going to try to convince you that God started it and you now have to complete what GOD started.
Which is impossible, as how could you finish God's Righteousness?
Only a fool would think they could even try that....

So, can you recognize that you had no righteousness.
None.
This means, of yourself, you have no power, no ability, and no means, to ever make yourself acceptable to God, as God only accepts the MADE RIGHTEOUS.
The Devil will try to make you believe that you can do it.....and that your salvation is one part God's Blood and one part your self effort.
Paul said that those who preach and teach this false gospel are "cursed". Galatians 1:8.
Jude says they are the worst type of deceivers.
So, when someone comes to you here, or anywhere... and tries to put you under the bondage of keeping yourself saved, after GOD has completed your salvation with His own blood, then recognize that you are dealing with a devil led heretic.
And they will find you.

Now, one more thing to think about, so that you can see that God's salvation is all of God and given as a gift, and never earned or completed by you.

Listen, ... If God's salvation was based on your effort or your behavior, ...If keeping salvation was based on your effort or behavior, then you would be in the same situation that Adam and Eve were in, before they fell.

God would not do that to His beloved, His redeemed, His Bride. And He didnt.

What God did on the Cross was resolve for eternity what was keeping you from being "One" with Him, as well as resolve what will always keep you "One" with Him.
That's Salvation, thats the BLOOD ATONEMENT... and that is why its called ETERNAL LIFE, and not "temporary" or, "till you mess it up".

God is ALL Wise, and He created His Blood Atonement so that He has full responsibility to save you and keep you saved.

Philippians 1:6
