John 3:16-17  16: 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. 17: For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 

Jesus Leaves His Peace

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Lesson: Definitions: Peace - freedom from war, trouble, or disturbance. Troubled - 1. emotionally or mentally distressed. 2. economically or socially distressed. Afraid - 1. frightened or fearful 2. reluctant or regretful. We have so many things going on in this world day to day we tend to ask the question, " When will I get a moments peace?" Or better yet as christians and people of  God we go through trials and storms because we serve the Lord.

God's Pure Love

John 3:16 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. Lesson: God loves us so much that he sent his Son to  be beaten, humiliated, persecuted and die on the cross just to save us from our own sins and a life of eternal damnation. As long as we believe in Jesus Christ, have faith in Him and live according to God's word we will live forever, not on this Earth but in Heaven with the Father. Would you give your  child's life to save others knowing that they have done wrong? That they have committed murder, rape, adultery, robbery, fraud or any of these things against you, your family members or your friends? No we would not. But God did. Hallelujah! Praise God! I certainly am glad He did. Jesus gave his life for ours, He made the ultimate sacrifice so that we could be forgiven of our sins and live.
