God So Loved the World – John 3:16 (Week 14)

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. – John 3:16 (NIV)

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)

Theme: God’s Plan for Salvation

This is our last week on the theme “God’s Plan for Salvation.” The last thee weeks we covered foundational verses from Romans (part of the “Romans Road”). This week we close out this theme with possibly the most well-known verse in the Bible: John 3:16.

John 3:16 captures the key aspects of God’s plan for salvation in just one sentence. He loves us so much that, even though we are sinners not worthy of being with Him, He still sent His Son Jesus as a sacrifice to save us. Anyone who believes Jesus died for our sins and accepts His gift of salvation will live forever with Him. It may seem hard to believe, but it really is that simple.

We’re now over a quarter of the way through our 52 Week Challenge. If you’d like to practice memorizing and reciting the verses we’ve covered so far, check out our 2019 Challenge Verse Practice Page. Next week we start a new series called “Trusting God’s Plan.”

Doogie - Be Thankful – 1 Chronicles 16:34 (Week 47)

(we received this comment via email)… Another excellent post! And just to carry the historical aspect with regard to our nation one step further, the resolution adopted by Congress actually urged President Washington to declare “a national day of thanksgiving and prayer” (emphasis supplied), but in today’s times we seem to forget that second part. In fact, the very first line of President Washington’s proclamation establishing our nation’s first Thanksgiving states “Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor...” The full text of the proclamation is available at: https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Washington/05-04-02-0091 Our Founding Fathers recognized and gave thanks to God above all first and foremost, and we would be well-served to do the same!
