That None Should Perish
January 8, 2026

“For God so loved the world He gave His only son, that whosoever believes on Him would not perish, but have everlasting life.  17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”  John 3:16-17


It is God’s will that all would believe and not perish. You were born so God could love you and so you could be close to Him through the faith He gave you. God’s will is not always done on the earth; when bad things happen, it is because of the sin we constantly bring into the world, not God’s will. To qualify for eternal life, we must believe Jesus is the Son of God and allow Him to cleanse us of all our sins by accepting that His sacrifice on the cross was for your and my guilt, shame, and sins.


Revelation 3:20 says, “Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.” If you ask for God’s forgiveness, He will forgive you.


It was for you He came into the world, and it was for you He died, and rose from the dead. If you have questions or would like to discuss your faith, email me at Rhonda@thelifeoflove.org, and let’s set a time to talk.

Be sure and listen to the corresponding Podcast "That None Should Perish." There is so much more in God's heart for us in His Word. He has
always included all people in His plan. I'll discuss it on the Podcast. Coming Soon!
