- John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Today’s scripture is ‘John 3:16.’ John 3:16 is a scripture about the purpose for which the Messiah came and the most representative verse in all of the Old Testament and the New Testament. Like today’s main scripture says, God sent ‘the Messiah’ to this world because He loved ‘the people He created.’ He would not send the one He loves to this world if He does not love lives.
When God sends the Messiah to this earth, He and the Holy Spirit take him as ‘Their body’ and teach him how he should live, that is, They teach him ‘God’s Will.’
Then They have him preach that gospel to the world so that the lives will be saved through taking action according to that truth. And since God sent the Messiah because He loves lives, He works through him and makes them love God absolutely and God also absolutely loves the lives. This is ‘God’s purpose for sending the Messiah and the Messiah’s purpose for coming.’ However, whether they believe in and love the Messiah or not is ‘their freewill.’ ‘The destiny of a person’s spirit and body’ is determined by whether that person believes in the Messiah [God] sent out of His love for the world or not.
The Messiah raises people and loves them. As he does, he teaches them correctly about how the Trinity exist, and helps the lives also love the Trinity 100%. And he helps the bodies and spirits of people who live that way resurrect and transform into ‘Heaven’s brides, the counterparts of love.’ With ‘the people who are resurrected and transformed into Heaven’s brides’ in this way, God takes action on and fulfills ‘His purpose for creating heaven and earth and human beings.’ This is ‘the rapture’ that God spoke of in the Bible and ‘the rapture history’ that God is carrying out by sending the Messiah again.
We will look at John 3:17~18. “For God so loved the world that He sent His one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not ‘perish’ but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to ‘condemn’ the world, but to save the world through him.
Whoever believes in him is not ‘condemned,’ but whoever does not believe stands ‘condemned already’ because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” Like John 3:17 says, those who believe in and follow the Messiah sent by God will not ‘be condemned or ruined.’ As for those who do not believe in the Messiah and those who do unrighteous deeds in violation of God’s laws, God will judge them through the Messiah He sent so that He prevents sin from spreading further and keeps Satan and wicked people from fulfilling their will. It is by not believing in the Messiah sent by God that people commit unlawful deeds and do evil. Therefore, like John 3:18 says, those who don’t believe in the Messiah are already ‘condemned.’
The greatest core message that the Messiah teaches is the Word in Matthew 22:36-40. “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is ‘the first and the greatest commandment.’ And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” That is why the Word in John 3:16 and the Word in Matthew 22:36-40 are the representative Word about the Messiah in the Bible.
Like the Word in John 3:16, the most representative verse in the Bible, if you – believe in the Messiah sent by God, And according to the Word in Matthew 22:36-40, the Messiah’s greatest teaching, you love God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son with all your heart, will, and life, and love your brothers with the same heart, at the time of the New Testament, you will fulfill ‘the child-domain Purpose of Creation’ and at the Complete Testament time of Advent, you will fulfill ‘the bride-domain Purpose of Creation’ and thus, complete God’s Purpose of Creation. The Old Testament Word of the Law is completed through ‘the New Testament Word’ and the New Testament child-domain Word is completed through ‘the Complete Testament Word.’
You become raptured only if the Messiah’s purpose for coming is fulfilled. Additionally, you have to like, follow, and put into practice the ultimate core Word that the Messiah teaches. Only then will you rapture. In order to do that, like the Word in Matthew 22:36-40, you have to live together with God while loving Him with all your heart, will, and life. I bid you the Holy Son’s peace. Amen!
