1 John 5:12
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

Study Note
The stark antithesis 'he that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life' states the christocentric soteriology of 1 John with maximum clarity: spiritual life is not a generic divine gift but is constituted specifically by union with the Son. The repetition of 'hath' (echōn) in both halves creates a precise zero-sum equation — life is coextensive with having the Son, not life-plus-something or life-available-to-all. This verse anticipates the following verses (5:13-15), where the purpose of writing is to enable assurance: since life is inseparably connected to having the Son, and the Son is confessed, life is confidently claimed. John 14:6 ('I am the way, the truth, and the life') provides the Christological ground, and Acts 4:12 ('no other name') the exclusivist implication that has shaped Christian soteriology and missiology.
