Part 3: For God LOVED the World… Posted on November 27, 2013 by BibleBelieverNet John 3:16 (KJV) 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. Many can quote this verse and it is the only verse they can quote, but have you ever stopped to realize what this verse tells us? Perhaps this should have been the first message in this series, but here it is now. There is a lot of meaning in this verse of the Bible. I hope this finds the person who needs it. For God so loved the world. God loves the world. Not the sin. Not the pain. Not the suffering. God loves the entire population of planet earth. God loved you in eternity past before there was even a world in this universe. God loves us and want us to be saved according to his Bible. Jesus Christ came into this world to save sinners of whom I am chief. Jesus came to seek and save the lost. Jesus Christ came to see that you are born again. Jesus Christ gave his life before the foundation of this earth to see us in heaven with him. Jesus Christ first loved us before we were ever born. 1 Timothy 1:15 (KJV) This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Luke 19:10 (KJV) For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. 1 Peter 1:19-21 (KJV) But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, 21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. The Father gave his only begotten Son. God called his Son Emmanuel-God with us! He was born of Virgin and made flesh. Mary was an ordinary woman. Mary was sinner just like every person has a chance to be. Mary had son without the help of man. Mary had a child by the Holy Ghost of God. Jesus Christ was the son of Mary and the Son of God. Jesus Christ is born of the flesh and fully God. I don’t understand the mystery of how God and man can be in the flesh, but I know it happened. Matthew 1:23 (KJV) Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Luke 1:34-35 (KJV) Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Luke 2:11 (KJV) For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:33 (KJV) And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. Luke 2:14 (KJV) Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. John 1:1-3 (KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. John 1:14 (KJV) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. That whosoever believeth in him should not perish. Whosoever means everybody on this earth has a chance to be saved. That is me, you, and everyone else on the planet has that chance. Not just a few. Jesus does not want us to perish. Jesus does not want you go to hell. He gives us the means to accept him. Jesus loves you and he does not want you to perish. He gave his life for your life. He suffered the same to keep you from being everlastingly punished. Romans 10:13 (KJV) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 2 Peter 3:9 (KJV) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. John 3:17-18 (KJV) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 1 John 5:10-12 (KJV) He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. Mark 16:16 (KJV) He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. But have everlasting life. God loves us enough to give us a chance at everlasting life. If God can’t keep you he is powerful enough to save you. God wants to give you a gift of eternal life. God gave us this gift out of his love for us. John 3:36 (KJV) He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 5:24 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 1 John 5:13 (KJV) These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Why can I have eternal life and not lose my salvation. God promised it to me and to you. I can’t do just anything I want to do. God whips me when I do wrong like a loving father. I don’t like to be whipped but sometimes even I need it. Hebrews 12:5-11 (KJV) And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. 9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live? 10 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. 11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Sometimes it really hurt to be corrected by the LORD, but there is a time when that correct turns to joy. If we submit to the correction then we can bear peaceable fruit later. How many of us remember a peach tree switch or a belt that sounded like a helicopter? God is much better at correcting us than our early fathers and parents. The LORD God loves us enough to send us his Son to die for us. The LORD God loves us enough to allow all to be saved. The LORD God loves us and want us to have eternal everlasting life. The LORD God loves us and will correct us where we are wrong. I’ve learned I need to listen to that small voice that whispers to me. I’ve learned to listen to the pricks when my heart and the Spirit convicts me. I’ve learned to seek God’s forgiveness when I do wrong. I don’t lose my salvation every time I sin, but I lose my fellowship with God. I don’t whippings. I don’t think you do either, but sometimes it is better for us. God loves us so much! Thank the LORD God if you are saved. If you are not saved, you need to seek his mercy and his grace. Ask the LORD to tell you if you are really saved and he will tell you. If the LORD does not give you that confidence what harm will it do to ask him to show us the way to do his will in our lives? Ask the LORD to show you what you need to do in your life to please him. If you will seek him and seek him, God will surely answer you. Father God, I thank you for the blessings you have given me. I thank you for your truth. I thank you for letting me go to church tonight. I thank you for saving my soul and keeping me saved. Thank you for the fruits in my life and walk before you. Thank you for the physical gifts you have given me. Thank you for helping me with the many prayer that are being offered up for me. Thank you for keeping the devil out of my life. Thank you LORD for the precious friends I have. Thank you for the new friends you have given me. Help us to realize how much you love us. Show us the love of God upon our hearts, our homes and our churches. Bless everyone according to your will for their lives. Thank you for Jesus Christ. Thank you for giving me what I did not deserve. Thank you for giving me what you have promised me. Thank you for the righteousness of God upon my filthy rags. Thank you for the churches, the teachings, the Bible and the brethren you have shared with me this year. I am not fit to go to heaven. I am don’t deserve the blessings you give me. I do not deserve the friends I have. I do not deserve the gifts I’ve received. Bless all thanksgiving services tomorrow according to your will. Thank you, JESUS! Praise you Name. In the Name of the ONLY of Begotten of God, Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
