The writing of this article was motivated by a partial understanding of the concept of eternal life, where believers often only understand it as a matter of the future. In fact, understanding eternal life without having implications for current temporal life will weaken Christianity. John emphasizes in his gospel that the eternal life referred to also touches the present aspects of every believer. The impact can be felt when they live in the world. One of the texts that conveys this is John 12:23-28a. The method used is style analysis, with emphasis on the chiasmus structure. The result obtained is that the chiasm pattern contained in it and this pattern shows that eternal life is the axis that is central in formulating life goals. The purpose of life is: 1) glorifying God through obedience and suffering; 2) carrying out God's mission to reach people who do not yet believe; and 3) serve God with a willingness to follow Him and believe in the promise of glory that will be available in eternity.

Overwhelming feelings of resentment and revenge by individuals in emotionally wounded and traumatised communities inflicted by injustice, violence and oppressive systems, often become a way of life, and people seldom deal with forgiveness in their healing process. Too often, the story of traumatic experiences surfaces as an indication of societies struggling to achieve lasting peace. This article explored a process of spiritual healing and life fulfilment that relates to a forgiveness process which includes koinonia and diakonia as indispensable elements on the road to reconstructing communities and individuals following conflict and violence. The point of departure in this article was taken from scriptural and academic literature to provide a forgiveness process to contain revenge and violence without resorting to it, and to protect individuals, communities and the social order within larger systems in society. The imperative to forgive could raise a persistent attitude and a way of life to encourage communities’ and individuals’ resilience.Contribution: The article offers an avant-garde quest for a forgiveness process that includes koinonia and diakonia as indispensable elements on the road to reconstructing communities and individuals following conflict and violence.
