TEN OF THE GREATEST THINGS in the BIBLE -
JOHN 3. 16 - GOD's LOVE TOWARD US
THE RESURRECTION
ROMANS ch. 1: v. 1 -4
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ,
called to be an apostle,
separated unto the
Gospel of God, (which
had promised afore by the
prophets
in the Holy Scriptures.)
Concerning His Son Jesus Christ
which was made of the seed of
David according to the flesh,
And declared to be the Son of God
with power,
according to the
spirit of Holiness,
by the resurrection
from the dead:
In this Paul declares
that the
RESURRECTION
is the
reality
of God's love
toward us.
Let us consider
His 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.
CONSIDER THESE 10
GREAT
TRUTHS
FOUND IN THE BIBLE,
KJV - THE HOLY BIBLE
1. GOD SO LOVED
IT IS GOD Who has
taken the initiative.
I John 4.19
We love Him, because
He first loved us.
2. GOD'S LOVE was
demonstrated to
the WORLD
His Love included all of us,
everyone.
3. GOD'S LOVE in giving
the gift of HIS ONLY
BEGOTTEN SON
-
The SON of GOD was
from everlasting ...
John 1.1 In the beginning
was the Word, and
the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
John 1.2 The same was in the
beginning with God.
John 1.3 All things were made
by Him, and without Him
was not anything
made
that was made.
John 1.4
In Him was Life,
and the Life
was the Light of men.
Think of it.
God the Father, who is
Spirit always was
with the Son
there never
was a time
when
they were apart.
The Holy Spirit
is spoken of in
God's Word the Bible
as "GOD."
When Jesus was born in
Bethlehem, he did
not begin then -
He "was from everlasting"
He Himself said in
John 14.6
I am the Way, the
Truth, and
the Life,
No man cometh unto
the Father,
but by me.
When asked by Philip that
He show them the way, Jesus
said "Have I been with you
so long a time with you , and yet
thou hast not known me,
Philip? he that hath seen
me hath seen the Father,:
and how sayest thou then,
Show us the Father?
Believest thou not that
I am in the Father,
and the Father in me?
the words that I speak
unto you, I speak not
of myself, but the Father
that dwelleth in me, He
doeth the works.
Believe me that I
am in the Father,
and the Father in me:
or else believe me for the
very works' sake.
John 14. 6 -11
4. God's Love is the Greatest
Possession of any thing
ever given to us. HIS LOVE
is demonstrated from Genesis
to Revelation in that
His SON JESUS CHRIST is
revealed in the Bible
from cover to cover.
EVERLASTING LIFE
is the greatest possession
any one can receive.
It is available to
any
who
will receive
HIS GIFT OF HIS SON
5. HIS LOVE IS FOR
WHO SO EVER
WILL BELIEVE
ON HIS SON JESUS CHRIST
John 1.12
As many as received Him,
to them gave He power
to become the sons of God,
even to them that believe
on His name.
6. THE GREATEST SIMPLICITY
that GOD has given us -
the SIMPLE
ACT Of
BELIEVING
to trust
to rely
to lean upon
to put my confidence in
SIMPLE
FAITH
JOHN 12.48 -50
He that rejecteth me, and
receiveth not my words, hath
one that judgeth him: the word
that I have spoken, the same
shall judge him in the last
day. For I have not spoken
of myself: but the Father
which sent me, he gave me
a commandment, what I should say,
and what I should speak.
And I know that His commandment
is life everlasting: whatsoever
I speak, therefore,
as the Father hath
said unto Me, so I speak.
John 8. 48 - 50
7. JESUS CHRIST has offered us
EVERLASTING LIFE -
TO BELIEVE ON HIM IS THE GREATEST
DELIVERY
of any promise
of any hope
of any prospect
IT IS THE SURE HOPE
IN A TROUBLED WORLD.
8. THE GREATEST TRAGEDY
is to reject the SAVIOR
GOD"S GREATEST GIFT
is GIVEN
but He gives us a choice
He never pushes
He never chides
He only gives
the C H O I C E
9. WE HAVE THEREFORE THE
GREATEST NECESSITY
TO RECEIVE BY FAITH
THROUGH GRACE
Underserved
Unwanted
Disregarded
Disdained
YET
GOD STILL OFFERS
A N Y O N E
the Gift of Forgiveness
of Everlasting Life
IN HIS SON
10.EVERLASTING
comes with
knowing
I as a sinner
need a Savior
God gives this
FREE GIFT
that
when I accept the payment
of the BLOOD of JESUS
as my payment
for my sin
debt
He not only gives
me
THE SPIRIT
of JESUS
to dwell in me.
I no longer
am alive to sin,
but alive to God.
I no longer
am beholden
to
my old sin nature
the world
or the
devil
for GOD
IS
NOW
MY LORD AND SAVIOR
JESUS CHRIST
who
when Love comes
in
fear
goes out the door.
I John 5.4
For whatsoever is born
of God overcometh the
world: and this is
the VICTORY
that overcometh
the world,
even our
F A I T H.
We now have
two natures,
the old and the new
The NEW is LIFE
Life living now
in Christ.
The Greatest Gift ever given
GOD'S LOVE.
Romans 3.23
For all have
sinned
and come short
of the glory of God.
Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin
is death,
but the gift of God
is eternal life
through Jesus Christ,
Our Lord.
Isaiah 53.6
All we like sheep have
gone astray:
we have turned
every one
to his own way;
and the LORD
hath laid on Him
the iniquity of us all.
Luke 9.23, 24
And he said to them all,
If any man will come
after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his cross
daily,
and follow me.
For whosoever
will save his life, shall
lose it: But whosoever will
lose his life for my sake shall
the same shall save it.

I urge you to consider
that Jesus said
He is coming soon to
take HIS BRIDE HOME
TO HIMSELF
and that means
every one who
names the Name
of Christ who truly
believes
will go to be
with HIM...
ARE YOU READY?
Rev. 22.19
He which testifies
these things saith, Surely I come
quickly. Amen. Even so,
come, Lord Jesus.
Galatians 2.20
I am crucified with Christ;
nevertheless I live;
yet not I,
but Christ,
liveth in me:
and I life which I now live
in the flesh, I live
by the faith
of the Son of God,
who loved
me
and gave
Himself for me.
Galatians 2.20
