What Jesus Says to a Complacent Church
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Paul writing to the church in Corinth says - “by the good news you are saved.”
It seems strange to think of the “passion” of Jesus, the events that unfold in the last hours of his life here on earth (his trial, crucifixion, death and resurrection) as “good news”. But it’s the heart of Easter and of our Christian faith. It’s encapsulated in perhaps the most famous verse in the New Testament - “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 (King James Version).
These few words remind us that we can –
1) Acknowledge God’s great passion for us
For God so loved the world
2) Appreciate God’s gift
that he gave his only begotten son
3) Accept God’s proposal
that whosoever believes in him
4) Anticipate God’s promise
should not perish but have everlasting life
