God Loves
You!
"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
The Gideons International is best known for
their Gideons Bibles. Since 1908, Gideons
have placed Bibles in hotel and motel rooms
for guests to read.
On the inside cover, printed in a multitude of
languages, is the text of John 3:16. So, when
travelers around the world open the
Gideons
Bible in their hotel room, they'll find the verse,
in familiar language, that says God loves them.
John 3:16 is
perhaps the best-known and most
loved verse of Scripture—and the most concise
rendering of the Gospel message in one verse.
Entire sermons can be preached on the truths
contained in this one verse.
But for individual readers here is the message:
God loves you. If you're in “the world,” God loves
you. He proved His love by sending His only Son,
Jesus Christ, to pay for your sins and promise
you eternal life (1 John 4:9-10).
Are you in the world today?
If so, God loves you. Respond
to His love by believing in His
Son, Jesus.
"Since God had a Son of his own,
and such a Son—how wonderful
God’s love in adopting us!"
Thomas Watson
