#soap # John 03 ## Title: Savior of the World ## Scripture: (John 3:16-17) “For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world should be saved through him.” (NET) ## Observation: There is a reason John 3:16 is one of the most famous verses in Scripture. In this one verse, Jesus explains the plan of God. The world had fallen to sin. It could not save itself. So, out of His great love, God sent His Son Jesus into the world on a rescue mission. In the plan of God, all three of the Trinity were involved. The Father willed it, the Son provided it, and the Holy Spirit draws us to it. The only thing we bring to our salvation is our sin. What a great God we serve. ## Application: Spend today in thankfulness. If you have been saved by the forgiveness of God, you have already received the greatest miracle. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for saving us.
