I’m winnowing my list.
RESPOND “YES” if you
want to remain on my list.
If you do nothing, you’ll be off :)
I’ll try twice more after this weekend.
FALL FOCUS:
THE GOSPEL OF JOHN:
THE BELIEVING LIFE.
Today’s verse reveal’s the Gospel’s purpose:
“that through believing you may have life.”
+ + +
AT THE VERY END of John’s Gospel (at the least the end before the postlude — which is chapter 21), John states his purpose in writing this “book.” His first purpose — as he states — is “so that you may come to believe.”
And why is believing important? That’s where John’s second purpose comes in: “so … that through believing you may have life in his name.”
He’s saying: FAITH equals LIFE.
Meaning: If your life needs a pick-me-up, then greater faith is the answer. This fall, what are you choosing to do to grow your faith and enrich your life?!
