What's the Answer?

Jesus said why people don't want to come to Him to have eternal life. Because their deeds were evil. Fear of being exposed prevents them from coming to Him.

John 3:16-21 NIV

[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. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. [18] 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. [19] This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. [20] Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 

Several times in the past we've heard this, "I'll come when I get my life straightened out." Or "I can't go to church, my life is too messed up." They are afraid that everyone will find out about their lives or that God might reject them, or think He already does, like when they say, "God could never love me." Or "He'll never love me after all I've done."

See? [20] Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. 

Fear is the moving force in people's lives.

So, what's the answer?

Don't be afraid my friend. Come to God. Believe in the only begotten Son of God so that you can be saved.

God loves you. He made you and wants you to live with Him forever!!

John 3:16-17 NIV [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. [17] For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Forget the past. It doesn't matter where you are or what you've done. Don't stay where you are. Come to Jesus Christ!!
