1-15-07 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 eternal life.

John 3:16

God created us for fellowship with Himself. Because He wanted us to love Him out of our own free choice, He gave to us a free will. Adam and Eve used it wrongly, and God devised a plan for His beloved Son to take on our form and to provide an expression of how much He loved us.
I have yet to meet anyone who---if given enough time---will not respond to genuine love. That is why God sent Jesus into the world, in order to reveal to us His overflowing, everlasting, all-encompassing love. God created us for fellowship with Himself, and He has provided everything needed for us to experience that fellowship throughout all eternity.
