I believe in God. It’s a simple statement that most of us with agree with...however, what does it really mean?
The dictionary says that to “believe in” means: to be convinced of the existence of, be sure of the existence of. to have faith in, pin one's faith on, trust in, have every confidence in, cling to, set (great) store by, value, be convinced by, be persuaded by...
John 3:16 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.
The Bible says that if we believe in Jesus, then we are not condemned...we are saved, we are loved, we have hope, we have eternal life.
What does it mean to believe in Jesus? How is your life different because you believe in Jesus? Do you believe?
Take some time this week to read John 3...read Jesus’s words and ask yourself...do I believe?
