As we look closer into this last statement of John in chapter three, we see a summary of all we have learned in chapter three. The believer in Christ has an unshakeable hope based on the Father's love for His Son - and this is where our Christian life is anchored.

John gives us picture of those in chapter 2 who "believed" but to whom Jesus did not entrust himself. Nicodemus is shown that his problem lies in the fact that he has not been born again. This is what we all need to hear. Unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Jesus enters the Temple, runs out the sellers, and turns over the tables of the money-changers. Jesus is Zealous for true worship and so should we be. But Jesus also demonstrates that He is the true temple. He is the true place where worship, prayers, and sinners are accepted by God. Only through Him do we find peace with God, and He knows the inner most depths of our hearts.

Jesus does the first of His "signs" in the gospel of John. Turning the water used for ceremonial cleansing into wine is a picture of what Jesus came to do. He has taken away the outward ritual cleansing and has ushered in the new era of the New Covenant.

John the Baptist's witness to the coming Christ was powerful and effective. God used him to prepare the way for the Messiah. As disciples, we are called to be a witness to Christ and to make disciples. How can we be a powerful witness for Christ as John was?

In John's prologue, right at the beginning, he shows us that the testimony of Jesus demands a response from men. There are only two possible responses - to reject Him or to receive Him. It is only those who receive Him who are born of God. John defines what "receiving Him" entails.

Paul instructs the Corinthians in the proper use of their gifts. Each member of the body of Christ is both useful and in need of the other members. No one can say "I am not needed," and no one can say, "I don't need anyone." The great commission is about making disciples, therefore our mission is people.

David praises and blesses God's name for His wonderful works. He preaches to himself, telling his own soul and everything within him to bless God. The first and most important reason God is owed praise is for forgiving our sin. We can never take our salvation to granted.

Jesus gives us the example of what it means to have a servant's heart. It is a heart of love and humility. Not only does He model it for us. He tells us that we must follow His example in serving one another.
