John 3:16

  • Posted on August 1, 2009 at 5:07 pm

There is a verse in the Bible that has been recorded in more than 1100 languages according to the Gideon Bible.

Why is this verse so important?  What is the verse?  The important verse is in the book of John of the Bible, in chapter 3 verse 16. John 3:16.

Did you ever read it? Try reading it and see what effct it has in your life. It is a powerful verse and it is a true saying. God gave His Son to die for you and for me. Do we really, really know what that means? God sent someone to die on the cross to take away all sins from this world. All sins, all sickness, all pain, all disease. Why would God do that? Why would God sent His only Son to be crucified for us. To be tortured, to be ridiculed, to be spit on, whipped 39 times and lashed so hard his skin was torn from His body? Do you know why? Do we really, really know why? It is so hard to understand why, but we need to know why? Ask the why and try to understand. Read the book of John in the Bible and see what’s going on. Solve the mystery of why, but I will tell you more. I am not a scholar. I am not a diciple, but I do love God. I love Him very much. When I read the Word of God, He enlightens me to His feelings and I try to feel His pain of sending His only Son to the cross. Read the verse and feel it. Feel the meaning. Feel the pain this man Jesus went through. Why did He do it? Why did God allow His son to be tortured like that? Would you allow your child to be in His place. Ask yourself, why did God do this to His one and only Son?
