God Loves So Much / Lucado

 

God Loves So Much

Click below to listen to today's devotional

This is John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life!”

Any serious consideration of Christ must include these words. God so loved the world. We’d expect an anger-fueled God. One who punishes the world, forsakes the world—but loves the world? This world? Heartbreakers, hope-snatchers. But God loves!

And he loves so much he gave his…declarations? Rules? Dicta? Edicts? No. The mind-bending claim of John 3:16 is this: God gave his Son…his only Son. Scripture equates Jesus with God. God then, gave himself. Why? So that whoever believes in him shall not perish.
