00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,580
Hi, welcome to this segment of Gary Bride with Jam, a Holy Spirit You Channel podcast.

2
00:00:09,580 --> 00:00:14,360
We are a Whosoever Will channel and a Whosoever Will podcast.

3
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:19,300
That means that wherever you are in your journey, wherever you are in your walk of faith, even

4
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:25,000
if you have not yet started it, you are welcome here.

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:32,280
For God so loved, for God so loved, that's what we're going to be talking about just

6
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,440
for a few minutes today.

7
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,440
So I'll hop right into it.

8
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:53,120
John 3.16, for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever

9
00:00:53,120 --> 00:01:01,560
would believe in him should not perish but would have everlasting life.

10
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:15,300
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever would believe

11
00:01:15,300 --> 00:01:25,860
in him and on him should not perish but have everlasting life.

12
00:01:25,860 --> 00:01:28,960
At some point I'll do a longer segment on that particular scripture.

13
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:34,580
That tends to be the scripture that those considering Christianity, those who consider

14
00:01:34,580 --> 00:01:40,420
themselves Christians, those who are most familiar with particular things in the New

15
00:01:40,420 --> 00:01:45,620
Testament, that's one of the scriptures that comes up very often, John 3.16.

16
00:01:45,620 --> 00:01:48,540
And I want to say just a couple of things about that.

17
00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:51,180
For God so loved, first of all, his motivation is love.

18
00:01:51,180 --> 00:01:52,180
He is love.

19
00:01:52,180 --> 00:01:53,460
His intention is love.

20
00:01:53,460 --> 00:01:55,140
His personality is love.

21
00:01:55,140 --> 00:01:56,780
His constitution is love.

22
00:01:56,780 --> 00:01:58,020
His character is love.

23
00:01:58,020 --> 00:02:03,220
For he loved enough to give his only begotten Son.

24
00:02:03,220 --> 00:02:10,020
Many of my segments I will talk about how God provided himself.

25
00:02:10,020 --> 00:02:11,700
He's not other.

26
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:20,180
He gave himself to us and for us that we would have everlasting life.

27
00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:23,260
Everlasting life isn't just the hereafter.

28
00:02:23,260 --> 00:02:27,460
Everlasting life is the here and now.

29
00:02:27,460 --> 00:02:29,780
That we wouldn't perish.

30
00:02:29,780 --> 00:02:34,540
That we would pivot out of cursing into blessing.

31
00:02:34,540 --> 00:02:43,580
That we wouldn't be bound to a life and an eternity, a life here.

32
00:02:43,580 --> 00:02:48,700
All of the challenges that come along with being seriously in need of feelings, right?

33
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:58,620
The chronic affliction of humanity, sin in its various and manifold manifestations.

34
00:02:58,620 --> 00:03:02,300
That he doesn't, that's not what he wants for us.

35
00:03:02,300 --> 00:03:11,260
When he loved us enough to give his own Son, his own self, to ensure that we didn't have

36
00:03:11,260 --> 00:03:13,700
to stay in that condition.

37
00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:19,660
For God so loved the world, planted his earth, Earth is the planet, world is the people.

38
00:03:19,660 --> 00:03:24,900
That he gave his only begotten Son.

39
00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:34,380
That whosoever should believe in him should not perish but would have everlasting life.

40
00:03:34,380 --> 00:03:35,780
My name is Michelle.

41
00:03:35,780 --> 00:03:36,780
I got you.

42
00:03:36,780 --> 00:03:37,780
I bless you.

43
00:03:37,780 --> 00:03:39,780
Thank you for joining me here today.

44
00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:41,780
I'll see you next time.

45
00:03:41,780 --> 00:03:55,660
Bye.
