John 3–4: New Birth & Eternal Life

Read the Bible in 2011 ◊ Week 32: Saturday

“For God so loved the world, that He gave
His only begotten Son, that whoever believes
in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

“For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
John 3:16–18

Saturday’s Bible reading is John 3–4. In my post on the first two chapters of John I gave you an introduction to the book and below is a table of things to look for as you read. Other than that, in light of John’s purpose for writing, if you’ve never read John’s Gospel about Jesus Christ, I want you to discover it on your own.

“Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name.”
John 20:31–32

*“Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.”* John 8:58
