The Most Famous Verse
by: Pastor Ryan Scheibel

John 3:16, “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.”

This verse shows up in so many places like at football games on signs, the black things under players eyes, and In-n-out soda cups has John 3:16 on the bottom of every one of those cups.

Throughout history billions of people have memorized this verse. Why is John 3:16 so important? It explains the reason for Christmas. It summarizes the Bible in a single sentence.

This verse shows us how to settle our eternal destiny and go to heaven, how to have a relationship with God, how to get in his family. This single verse has been prized as the best one sentence descriptions of the great work of Jesus and how people can be saved. It’s “the Gospel in a nutshell”.

You can actually see the GOSPEL spelled out in the 1st letter of 6 words in this verse.
Circle the word “God.” Circle the word “Only.” Circle the word “Son.” Circle the word “Perish.” Circle “Everlasting” Circle the word “Life.” That spells G-O-S-P-E-L. the good news in a single sentence!
