John 3:16 is a very well know verse of scripture:
- What has always puzzled me is when people say "all you have to do is believe"! Does belief not include some kind of action? If my house is on fire, do I just stand there and say, "I believe I will be saved!"?
- I do know that I believe that JESUS is my only way to ETERNAL LIFE! I need to know how I should put that belief into action!
Are you aware what the verses before and after John 3:16 say?
The last 2 days we've looked at John 3:1-15...
Day 73:
- 3:3 JESUS replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of GOD unless they are born again.”
- 3:5-7 JESUS answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of GOD unless they are born of WATER and the SPIRIT. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the SPIRIT gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’
- 3:13-15 No one has ever gone into heaven except THE ONE WHO came from heaven—THE SON OF MAN. Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so THE SON OF MAN must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have ETERNAL LIFE in HIM.

John 3:16-21
16- For GOD so loved the world that HE gave HIS ONE AND ONLY SON, that whoever believes in HIM shall not perish but have ETERNAL LIFE.
17- For GOD did not send HIS SON into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through HIM.
18- Whoever believes in HIM is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of GOD’s ONE AND ONLY SON.
19- This is the verdict: LIGHT has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of LIGHT because their deeds were evil.
20- Everyone who does evil hates the LIGHT, and will not come into the LIGHT for fear that their deeds will be exposed.
21- But whoever lives by THE TRUTH comes into the LIGHT, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of GOD.
