John 3:16

I have been thinking about something the past few weeks, days, hours... I talk with God and read my Bible, but really have never put my thoughts into words. So, today I DID IT.

GOD,
holy and GREAT, did not come for the "good".
It says in the Bible:


    For
       GOD so LOVED the world...
    Let's stop right there^^^ 


The
world.   

                 Not the earth, the land, the  
                     oceans, the trees...




But the people.


               God loved the people. 


The Jews weren't the only people.
The Christians weren't the only people.
Even those you might classify as 
                                      "good"
                                         ....
                         Weren't the only people.


For God so loved everyone, alive and dead, all sinners, all who have done wrong, all who are imperfect and condemned to HELL.


  Now that is all the people...















He GAVE, not loaned, not sold...
He GAVE His ONLY SON.
There was no other son for Him to keep.


For 
   GOD
      so 
        LOVED
             everyone...


That
    He
      freely
            GAVE
                His
                   ONLY
                       Son.


That
    WHOEVER--- Not just those who have never been to prison. Not  
               just those who didn't have sex before marriage. 
               Not just those who go to church every Sunday....


                                                BUT


                            WHOEVER


God not only LOVES all people, He gave His only Son to ALL people.


Then it says: Believes in Him.


Not works for. Not earns. Not wins. But BELIEVES in JESUS...shall have eternal life.


God is saying right here -> John 3:16
Three main things.


He LOVES all sinners.
He GIVES them Jesus.
AND
He FORGIVES them if they believe.


A God who loves, and gives, and forgives everyone doesn't sound like the God I see in most people, including myself.


          I see anger, hatred, resentment, racism, 
          grudges, judgement, the list goes on.


All of that sin.
All of that making "Christians" just as unworthy of holiness as a      
                murderer or thief.






     But I'll tell you something to be shared:

                                      For God so loved YOU, 
                                                          that He gave you Jesus, 
                                                          that if you believe in 
                                                         Jesus, you will be saved 
                                                         and have eternal life.


God loves, gives, and forgives YOU.
                               ME.
                               EVERYONE.
So why don't we?
