John 3:16

John 3:16 "For God loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.

I know we see it everywhere: on buses and billboards, football games, and t-shirts; but we must not loose the importance of this verse. Our entire belief in Christ is summed up in this verse, like God specifically wrote it as the tag-line of the whole Bible.

Everything that happens in the Bible describes God's work in mending the relationship that was lost in Eden. God loves us so much that He wants us to spend eternity with Him. But, because of sin, we cannot enter the Holy presence of God in Heaven. He was not okay with that so His Son, Jesus, came to Earth and died as a sacrifice for our sins to be forgiven. Now, because of faith in the Blood of Christ, we can be with God for eternity!
