Study Note
The hope of eternal life 'promised before the ages began by God, who never lies' grounds apostolic proclamation in a promise ante-dating creation itself and whose guarantor is divine truthfulness. The phrase 'before the ages began' (pro chronōn aiōniōn) parallels 2 Timothy 1:9, Ephesians 1:4, and 1 Peter 1:20, establishing a consistent Pauline and New Testament emphasis on pre-temporal divine decision as the foundation of salvation. The title 'God, who never lies' (atheos pseustēs ouk esti) draws on the Old Testament axiom of Numbers 23:19 and is essential for understanding eternal life as a certainty rather than a probability. Hebrews 6:17-18 develops the same logic: the divine oath given to Abraham guarantees hope because 'it is impossible for God to lie.'
