“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall have eternal life. For God did not send his S0n into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”

John 3:16-17

John 3:16 is one of the most familiar verses in the Bible. It is probably one of the first verses that children or new Christians learn. It speaks of God’s love for us and gives us hope, peace and assurance.

Verse 17 is just as important to remember, although it may not be quoted as often. These words again speak of God’s love and compassion for humankind. Jesus did not come to condemn people, the world was already condemned as a result of the sin in the Garden of Eden. Jesus came to save the world  from condemnation! He came to restore, renew, mend and heal! 

What a wonderful God to love us this much! He is good and loves every person and offers this same salvation to all. We can live joyfully everyday when we have Jesus’ love abiding in us; and, we can share this message of hope with those that have no hope. 

Thank you God for your gift of Jesus. Thank you Jesus for redeeming us and giving us salvation.
