This seems like a stupid realization, but I can’t help but say it anyway.

Something REALLY OBVIOUS hit me tonight, but I can’t help talk about it. Did you ever realize that one of the most quoted scriptures in the Bible (John 3:16-21) was actually spoken by Jesus? It never really hit me that Jesus himself said these words. Huh… it’s funny how that happens.

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.”

It’s also weird how Jesus speaks of himself in the third person.

Did you miss this until now as well?

In Christ
