John 3:16
This is the greatest verse that leads us to the greatest decision we will ever make.
John 3:16 unpacked…
God loves…the world!
“In this love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins…We love, because He first loved us…” (1 John 4:10)
God gave…His indescribable gift!
“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift” (2 Cor. 9:15)
He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scouring we are healed.
All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him. (Isaiah 53:5-6)
We believe…in Him!
“The one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out” (John 6:27).
We receive…eternal life with Jesus Christ!
The guarantee given to those who possess eternal life is that they will never perish. Genuine salvation can never be lost; true believers will be divinely preserved and will faithfully persevere because they are kept by God’s divine power. Heaven is where for all of eternity we will live in perfect unity with fellow saved saints, worshipping at the Throne of God.
“For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten son,
that whoever believes in Him should not perish,
but have eternal life.”
