Some loving but also sobering thoughts for this holiday season -- directly from the Reason.
16 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.
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world
through Him might be saved.
18 “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.
19 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.
20 For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.
21 But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.”
When we read this passage,it is easy to stop at verse 16.But during this season, we need to remember where wewould all be without Christ. Remember our default destination.
2 Corinthians 13:5 reminds all to examine ourselves. “Am I really in the faith?” we need
to ask ourselves. There are always signs in the life of someone following Christ.
Where are you at? God wants you coming toward Him.
Think about it.
