John Gill, on John 6:46

“Not that any man hath seen the Father; but he who is of God, he hath seen the Father.”

“Verily, verily, I say unto you,.... This is a certain truth, and to be depended on: he that believeth on me hath everlasting life; not only he may have it, as in Joh 6:40, and shall have it, but he has it; he has it in Christ, his head and representative; he has it in the covenant of grace; he has it in faith and hope; he has a right unto it, and a meetness for it; he has the earnest of it, the grace and Spirit of God; and he has the beginning and foretastes of it in his soul, and shall certainly enjoy it.”
