    This message examines five points that come directly from John 3:16. Four of these points have to do with God, and one has to do with us. 1. God’s initiation of salvation 2. God’s motivation in salvation 3. God’s inclusion in salvation 4. God’s

    Let’s open our Bibles this morning to John chapter 3. We’ve been studying in John 3 for several weeks now; we’ve seen from verses 3-7 that the requirement of salvation is to be born again, we’ve seen from verses 15-16 that the method of salvation is Jesus’ death and our faith in Him, and we’ve seen ...read more

    What we must do to be saved has been the subject of debate, what does Jesus say?

    I Must WHAT??? John 3:1-16 This is part one of a series on the subject of being Born Again. John Chapter 3 introduces a man named Nicodemus and highlights an interview between Jesus and Nicodemus. This is much like a private Bible study where one is actually freed to ask any question of the ...read more

    Jesus explains that you must have faith in Him to have eternal life.

    In the Gospel of John we read in the third chapter of John starting at verse one; 1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God.

    In John 3:16, what kind of a world is Jesus talking about that needs saving?

    Love the World John 3:16-21 John 3:16 rings out loud and clear, “God so loved the world…” As I have traveled to some of our Free Methodist mission work I have witnessed the suffering of different people.

Immediately following the sermon, they were invited to come forward to place the stone representing their sin at the foot of the cross. I also took 8-1/2 by 11 sheets with a name for each Biblical person, taped ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,987 views

    This sermon explains why Jesus says we all must be "born again". It also goes into an explanation of what is a sacrament and why we baptize. This sermon is based upon John Wesley’s sermon #45 by the same name preached in 1760.

    First, a little humor: A preacher once heard about another preacher who gained notoriety by preaching the world’s longest sermon. He felt led to preach some kind of notable sermon, too, and get in the record books. But he didn’t want to bore people with a long sermon. So he decided he would ...read more

    Real life is a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    Text: “For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the LORD” (Proverbs 8:35). How would you explain life? Would you say that life is the time between your birth and your death? Would you say life is just your physical existence? You might quote Genesis 2:7 which says, “And the ...read more
