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. John 3:16 (NKJV)

We all learned this verse as children in Sunday school. We could recite it from memory with ease.

For God so loved the world God has His reasons for all He does. That reason is that He loves what he creates-our world and all who inhabit it. Sometimes, He has to allow difficult things to entre our lives. He does this to teach us something.

He gave His only begotten Son , God gave. He willingly gave His only Son. He sent His son to earth, divesting Him from the glories and splendor of heaven. Our Father again gave His Son to give us, His children life eternally.

that whoever believes in Him should not perish All who come to trust in the Son will not go through a spiritual death.

but have everlasting life. The men and women who choose to trust Jesus will be able to be in heaven with Jesus whenever their time on earth comes to its end.

All this happens because God loves us that much. He sent His Son to earth, making Him identify with mankind so that we might learn about the Father. God loves us so much that He allowed Jesus to suffer a criminal’s death for us, to take away our sins.
