For In This Way God Loved The World - February 25, 2022

For God so loved the world = For in this way God loved the world.

If you look up the definition of the Greek word for 'so' (Strong's G3779) in verses 14 and 16 of John chapter 3, I think you will see something revealing. 'So' in these verses doesn't mean quantity, as so many, including myself, have thought.

When I would read John 3:16, I used to internally interpret the verse to mean that God loved the world soooo much, as in the bigness of His love, and it was this bigness of His love that caused Him to send His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins on the cross. This is actually an incorrect understanding of that verse.

'So' in the English of that verse actually means 'in this way' or 'in such manor'. The Greek word is Houto and it has that as it's definition. If you have a look in a Strong's concordance or a Greek dictionary or lexicon for the Strong's number G3779, you will see that what I am saying is so.

I think that John 3:16 would be more correctly understood by all if it was translated as "For in this way God loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son..."

"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For in this way God loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God." John 3:14-21

Grace, peace and love in Jesus Christ!

Arthritis Pain Goes - In Jesus - October 25, 2021

Hello Everyone!

Testify and glorify His name. #testimony #gospel #healing #JesusisLORD

I met a man tonight while out for a walk and he let me lay hands on his knees and command the pain to go in the name of Jesus. I did it three times and each time got better than the last until the pain was gone. Thank You, JESUS!

Be blessed!

All Pain Left - In Jesus - July 24, 2021

I went for an afternoon walk and Jesus did His works through me for His glory. Thank You LORD!

It is all by grace through faith, just like salvation. It is a gift. By His wounds we are healed.

Please consider going here and watching or listening to some of the following (The DHTT is my favorite and my preference) to help you to follow Jesus more closely and to allow Him to do His works (which He prepared beforehand that you should walk in) through you too:
