Here is the most important fact you will ever believe; that is if you believe it personally:
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. 17 God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him. source
For God so loved (fill in your name) that He gave His one and only Son, that (fill in your name) believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. GOD did not send the Son into the world to condemn (fill in your name), but in order that (fill in your name) might be saved through Him.
First and the most important thing we need to know this Sunday Morning and every day: GOD Loves Us! Second. JESUS did not come here to condemn us; we were condemned and damned before He arrived ( in His GOD-MAN body) — He came to rescue us! There is a condition though. We have to say YES! Yes to admitting our condemnation, damnation and yes to His offer of salvation. So, if by His Grace you are hearing His offer being offered to you today . . . say Yes!
Do not give your heart permission to be troubled! Seriously? Does my heart have to have permission to be troubled? Obviously from Holy Writ it does. And this I know from recent experience, that permission to let it be troubled can be granted in a nano second! Lets :) find some help.
What follows the first period in the verse? TRUST in GOD.
So when we are trusting our Savior with the immediate ordeal, or circumstance, or threat or whatever . . . our hearts will not be troubled. That’s good news!
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
