Under Gods Command

John 8:48-51 The Jews answered him, “Aren’t we right in saying that you are a Samaritan and demon possessed?” I am not possessed by a demon, “said Jesus, “but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge. I tell you the truth if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.” I tell you the truth, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.

To keep Jesus’ word means to hear his words and obey them. When Jesus says those who obey won’t die, he is taking about spiritual death, not physical death. Even physical death however, will eventually be overcome. Those who follow Christ will be raised to live eternally with him.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; (6) in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.
