Who Jesus Is: Love

Anthony Gammage – John 3:16-21

Sermon Quotes

John 3:16-21
[16] “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. [18] Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. [19] And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. [20] For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. [21] But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”

1 John 4:19
[19] We love because he first loved us.

John 15:12–13
[12] “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. [13] Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

Romans 6:6–7
[6] We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. [7] For one who has died has been set free from sin.

Ephesians 5:25
[25] Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

Ezekiel 18:23
[23] Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, declares the Lord GOD, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live?

-D.A. Carson
