Scripture: John 3: 17-18
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 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.
Scripture Commentary: Jesus was sent into the world to save us
God sent His son Jesus Christ into this world for our sins, to die for us to give us a direct path to God. And still there are people who reject Him.
Some people look for points of disagreement so they can sow seeds of discord and doubt. Some people are repulsed by the idea of eternal life because their lives are miserable. They have rejected Jesus because they think the next life is an extension of this life.
What does it mean to be born again?
John 3:3 says, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
When we are born again, it is not of the flesh but born again of the Spirit. We accept Jesus as the Only Begotten Son of God, believing that He died and rose on the third day and went to heaven to His Father.
To believe is to put your trust and confidence in Jesus. If you have never trusted Christ, let this promise of everlasting life and believe in Christ.
