    The central message of John 3:16 can be compared to the donation of life giving organs. The donation requires a life, one life sacrificed can provide for several lives, there is no way to say thank-you for such a gift. John 3:16 is very similar.

    Introduction This morning, we look at the shortest possible description of the whole Gospel. John 3:16 is a marvelous passage beloved by so many. Luther referred to it as the Gospel, within the Gospel, or, the Gospel within a nutshell. And such it is. This short verse of less than thirty words ...read more
