Sempiternal
Sempiternal is an adjective meaning everlasting; eternal.
In the Gopel of Luke, a lawyer and a ruler both inquire of Jesus about the requirements for inheriting sempiternal life using almost the exact same phrasing (Luke 10:25; Luke 18:18).
And a lawyer stood up and put Him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" (Luke 10:25, NASB)A ruler questioned Him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" (Luke 18:18, NASB)
Jesus refers both to Old Testament law, but not to the same passages.
