God SO loved the world

Sometime we have this idea that God is stern and Jesus is wonderful, but its wrong.

John 3:16
New King James Version (NKJV)

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

  • God so loved the world
  • He gave His only begotten Son

Romans 4:5
New King James Version (NKJV)

5 But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,

  • believes on God

Romans 4:24
New King James Version (NKJV)

24 but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead,

  • believe in Him
  • He raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead
  • If we are to stand before Him, as He is God we are finished
  • But we stand before Him as a Saviour God

He is a Saviour God

  • If we are to stand before Him as He is God alone, we will be finished
  • But we stand before Him as Saviour God and He is our Father

God wants to hear your voice

Song of Solomon 2:14
New King James Version (NKJV)

14 “O my dove, in the clefts of the rock,
In the secret places of the cliff,
Let me see your face,
Let me hear your voice;
For your voice is sweet,
And your face is lovely.”

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
New King James Version (NKJV)

16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
