Discuss John 3 Page 57

Being judged and sent to hell has nothing to do with you being a good person. It has everything to do with who you say Jesus is. Only He can provide us with redemption thru His Blood alone. We must believe in the True Gospel - His Death, His Burial, and His Resurrection. For God gave us the good report of His Son Jesus in John 3:16. If we believe this then we have life if not then death abides in us. The SIN of unbelief in Jesus is the only SIN that will prevent us from going to Heaven. For salvation is a free gift from GOD to those that believe that JESUS is THE CHRIST.

I think I was preaching. I apologize. I agree that creation is a false teaching that has deceived many people; generations even. These scriptures may be useful:

2 Corinthians 3:14, 4:4-6

1 John 3:8

1 John all of chapter 2

Some day soon I'll give a condensed testimony. I was born again on Yom Kippur 1985.

You just read it here in verse 31 and 32, it doesn't say anything about "trying to live right" or "going to church" or "being baptized." It says believe on the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved. If you're trusting in anything in addition to Jesus to be saved, then you're saying what Jesus did for you is not enough on its own to wash away your sins and save you. We are saved, as it says, by believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, nothing more and nothing less.

Ephesians 2:8-9 For by Grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justified the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

John 3:16, John 3:18, John 3:36, etc.

It's great to live right and God rewards His children abundantly, but Christ alone saves.

Galatians 5:4. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Love Psalm 150 especially verse 6 Let everything that hath breath Praise the Lord Praise Ye the Lord. I praise our Lord Jesus regularly holding hands to heaven thanking him over and over especially for my life his grace and especially for John 3:16

i like the bible a lot and it is awesome to God

John 3:16

God wants us his creation to believe and trust him.

You do nothing, you will have nothing. I have nothing,so I do everything I can to reassure you that the money changers tables will be upended.

Pray that our leaders hearts are touched by the Holy

Spirit and discover the greatness of GOD through the sacrifice of his Son that saves us all from sin.

May God's grace give us all a selfless heart and mind to lead others to discover salvation.

Praise God for all, Jesus for sacrifice and Holy Spirit for guidance.

Seek the Truth and you'll discover the light.

Read Job 38 which tells you the Sons of God shouted for joy at the foundation (creation) of the earth.

Adam did not exist until 6 days after the earth was created. So how can the sons of God be godly men?

since when do godly men marry ungodly women and then giants are born to them?

John 1:14 Jesus is the ONLY BEGOTTEN Son of God.

Luke 3:38 Adam is called a son of God since God created him.

1 John 3:1 Believers do not become Sons of God till they are born of the Spirit.

So who was the Father of the angels? would they not be Sons of God also?

Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

I know most churches will argue with me and claim Genesis 6 is not referring to angels and I say they are wrong.

when do believers and unbelievers get married and have giants for kids?

Matthew 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God IN HEAVEN.

For God so loved the world (this means you) that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth on him should not perish but have everlasting life. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

But God demonstrates his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners Christ died for us. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, and that he was buried and that he rose again on the third day according to the scriptures and that he was seen of Cephas then of the the twelve and after that about five hundred brethern at once. For by grace are ye saved through faith and that not of yourselves it is a gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast. John 3:1-8 tells the story of Nicodemus where Jesus tells us we must be "born again".

I pray that you find the way, the truth and the life !!

Jesus was and is The Fathers gift of salvation, past present and future, yet there is a stopping point , i pray whomever reads this comes to accept Jesus as The True Christ, in His omnipotent Holy Name appointed by Abba Father God of all creation forever and ever Amen....

Chris, we here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, are not gathering together at our church building. We are meeting in small intimate groups at our homes. We also use Zoom and Duo to "see" each other in a greater number. Even these little things are good for us to keep encouraging and edifying each other with the word of God. Reminding each other that we are sinners saved by grace only. We realize that we can do nothing to save ourselves other than believe in the finished work of Jesus on the cross. John 3:14-21. Ephesians 2:8-9. John 5:24. Cheers!

James Chapter 1

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.

1 Timothy 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself

Hey Teresa, I can not tell you all that salvation means in a short paragraph but know that Salvation is by one name, JESUS CHRIST. He and the Father are one and you must call upon Christ to save you From Sin, Death, and Hell for he payed the ultimate price and suffered for all men that we may be saved! I am glad that you believe in God! But be careful for many may claim to believe but are not truly saved ( James 2:19). I encourage you to read Ephesians 2:8 and really that whole chapter! Also a simple way to explain salvation is that you must Hear the word ( Rom. 10:17) and then Believe ( John 3:16). Repent ( Acts 17:30), and Confess that he is LORD ( Rom. 10:10).

Thank you for your reply Fred. I appreciate your comment. I want truth and I seek truth with all of my heart. I have left the prosperity gospel message after 20 years and I am hungry for His living Word. I want out of my belly to flow rivers of living water.

The above verses are examples of how artfully plus quickly the forces of evil using mankind attack those who accept JESUS as their SAVIOR, as it relates to SALVATION through John 3:16-21. The forces of evil knows how gullible humans are to a lie, especially a half-truth, or ..., ..., so in 2020, where ever evil can, evil continue using deceived men /wolfs with sheep clothing to torment, scatter, kill, device, ..., especially those of of John 3:16-21.

Gods word must have free course in its entire meaning. Christ chose simple working righteous men, who new the prophecy of the coming savior. Jesus chose people with a pure heart.Like today,we Christians too,look for his returning.These apostles and disciples, were I witness to His majesty while He was here on the earth.These men,who were chosen of God, were moved by the Holy Spirit to write what you see in this KJV. When you read these words you are reading the words of men (moved) by Spirit of God. New interpretations create space we don't need! There is only ONE Holy Spirit! Remember, the Spirit must have free course with each believer. This is how we are set free from sin and hell.

The good news of the Gospel is that God so loved the world that he sent his one and only son for whosoever believe would not perish, but would have eternal life ( John 3:16). We are called to have faith (believe) that our savior, Jesus Christ, came to take on all the punishment of our sin and drank the whole cup of the wrath of God and was crucified in our place, was separated from God, so that we would not have to be. He died an undeserving death (for he was perfect so the grave could not hold him), so that we wouldn't have to die an eternal death separated from God. We can only be justified (cleansed) by faith alone through Christ alone. Salvation is a gift from a loving God.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave (his only begotten Son), that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:17 For God sent not (his Son) into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Matthew 1: 2-16 tells us who begat who from Adam until Christ. Jesus is Gods ONLY begotten SON, Joseph never begat Jesus, Mary didn't go to the sperm bank to get inseminated, But the Holy Ghost came and she conceived and bare the Son of God in the flesh.

29 and if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. ...thank GOD for John 3:16, thereby all mankind has access to the PROMISE / SALVATION.

Believers do not become Sons of God until they are born again of the Spirit in the new testament.

John 1:12 But as many as received (Jesus) him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

1 John 3:2 Beloved, NOW now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

April 2020 and all mankind is scratching their head and bottom concerning this and that, nevertheless the will of JEHOVAH /GOD, see the 7-SEALS in the book of REVELATION, shall come to pass. Verse 1 above is our assurance, 1 For we KNOW that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we HAVE a building of GOD, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Also see John 3:16.

18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen, for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal...... It is amazing as it relates to SALVATION because once we are SAVED our sight can grows dimer and dimer concerning the perishing earthly things or this and that. ETERNITY /SALVATION through John 3:16 reserve a personal seat for you or I at THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB, Rev 19:7, and what a day that will be.

18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.... this verse apply so well, as it relate to SALVATION, because this verse is foolishness to the mind of a person not SAVED according to verses such as John 3:16-21, ...., ...., etc., especially if Time allow us to consider how we foolishly gave 5 - 60 years of our life to this and that and finally we reach that point in life and still we do not realize we have deceived /entertained our-self's foolishly. Never-the-less the POWER OF GOD through verses such as John 3:16-21, ..., is there for us to apply it thereby reserve a personal seat at the MARRIAGE SUPPER..

At the hour above and as it relates to SALVATION, JESUS has returned to the FATHER and JESUS is preparing to return to earth.... so, while all mankind wait for JESUS to return to earth, JESUS has empowered the SAVED with POWER FROM GOD, especially POWER to plant the seed of the GOOD NEWS of JESUS POWER to SAVE a person from the Lake Of Fire / Rev:2015. NOTE verse 42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is HE which was ordained of GOD to be the Judge of quick and dead. 43 To HIM give all the prophets witness, that through HIS NAME whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. See John 3:16-21.

Sorry, Alex, but that is rank heresy. Jesus' words did not make them gods, that's similar to Mormonism or the Faith heresy's "little gods" theory and there is not one ounce of scriptural support for this. Not one. Jesus is the second person of the Trinity, the Son, the incarnation who through his life of perfect obedience obtained the merit we couldn't, and through his death and suffering took the punishment we deserve. Jesus obtained our SALVATION, not DEIFICATION. Eph 2:8-9, John 3:16-18, Romans 3. Grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone.

John 3:16 is such a powerful passage. It expresses God's true love for us. That love is called Agape. The best way I understand it is that GOD loves us so much that He gave Jesus, His only son, as a sacrifice so that we can be forgiven for our sin. Jesus' blood covers our sins.

Imagine if you had a child and how much you would love them. You would want to keep them safe from hurt, harm, and danger. Well Jesus is God's son and He gave His son to cover our sins. If you are baptized, repent, believe that Jesus was raised from the grave on the 3rd day you are saved. Nothing will or can separate you from the love of God, nothing.

It don't matter what you think, it matters what God's word says. It matters what you think when you're inline with God's word. You're out of line In what I've read. Do you know Jesus by works or by faith? He who believes in him is not condemned. How do you know Jesus? Who sent Jesus? The Father. Who sent Peter to Cornelius? God. Cornelius was Gentile. Read the book of Acts and all the epistles. Read John 3:16. If you're a believer all things have passed away. You're a new creature. There is no Jew or Gentile according to the flesh. But you're a Jew inwardly if you believe in Jesus.

I just hope that the people who have read not only this chapter, but also the whole word of God. That in order
to be a child of God You have to be saved. Which is being born of the water and of the Spirit. John 3:3 thru 7 and also
Acts 2:38. This is the new birth in order to be a true child of God. Romans 8:9 he that have not the spirit of Christ is none of his. He's talking about the Holy Ghost folks, the same Spirit that came down on the day of Pentecost. Acts 2:1-4. Then we'll be one in Christ, joint heirs with him. Then his Spirit will give us the power to walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. To God be the Glory, Praise the Lord.

David, "Water" is referring to flesh birth, Read John:3:6 with John 3:5. Jesus just explained the 2 births to Nic. One flesh, one Spiritual. And Of course, the flesh isn't what makes us born again. Jesus was not presenting these 2 births as joined means of Salvation. He hadn't explained how to be born again yet. He's just explaining what the 2 births are. Which obviously the first is natural birth because if I'm being born again by the spirit evidently I must've had a first birth. Was my first birth by the Spirit? No last time I was born was in the flesh. The Womb. (And it's not far off to say by water because when a baby is about to be born what normally happens? The Water breaks.) cont....
