“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” --John 3:16, KJV
God’s most precious love gift came to us in a baby, born just like we are, except his mother was a virgin, and His father was God’s Holy Spirit. I ask you: Is there anything more precious on earth than a newborn baby? It fills your heart full to overflowing. You want to tell everyone about the baby, and oh! The pictures!
John 3:16 is probably the most recognizable and most quoted verse in the Bible. Yet, millions of people today, many right here in Thomson, grope in darkness. As Christians, we all know the secret, the answers to bringing Peace, Joy, and Light into our troubled world. His name is Jesus, the Son of God, who came from the Father, Creator and Sustainer of all life. God’s great love for us caused Him to provide a way for us to be redeemed from our sins. God did for us what we could not do for ourselves.
We simply need to repent, believe, and accept God’s love gift to have everlasting life in Heaven and abundant life on earth.
“I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh, I live by the faith in the son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” –Galatians 2:20
“Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.” –I John 4:7
Now, go and tell the Glad Tidings of Great joy!
