Some people ask me what the verse in the entry below, John 3:16, means. So I figured you ought to know the meaning of the verse you memorize. Jesus was God in the flesh. He was sent down from Heaven to live a perfect life. Well, Jesus succeeded in that goal. Jesus was a very compassionate, loving man. If you say that God is an evil person, you are wrong. The only thing that can seperate us from having a relationship with God is sin. But Jesus changed that. As I said, he lived a perfect life, but Jesus died as a sinner. He was pinned to the cross because people thought he was an evil sinner. Jesus could have called down fire on all of them. But he didn't because he wanted us to have a relationship with God. He died for our sins even though we didn't deserve it. I think we owe our lives to Jesus.
