Please enjoy this preview of FPC Virtual Connection for the Second Sunday of Lent at First Presbyterian Church 1793

Nicodemus, a Jewish leader visits Jesus at night. Sometimes private conversations are better than public discussions.  Jesus tells Nicodemus that people need to be born from above to see the Kingdom of God. To enter the Kingdom, Jesus says that we must be born of water and Spirit.  Like the wind, the Spirit blows where it chooses. We don’t know where God’s Spirit comes from or where it is going.  Spirit is out of our control.

John 3:16 is a verse of hope. Some use it as a fearful verse used to frighten people into believing in Christ. What is God’s motive?  The motive is love.  The lesser-known verse, John 3:17, rounds out our understanding. 
 

Here are the two verses together:     John 3:16-17

16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.

17 “Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world but in order that the world might be saved through him.

Do we know that God loves us?  As in Psalm 121, God keeps our lives and keeps us safe no matter what.  We can always look to God for help and hope.

We hope you’ll join us for 10:30 a.m. Worship.
