Simple Faith in the Profound Christ

“And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book: But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through His name.”
(John 20:30-31)

In our English Bibles we find thirty-seven miracles of Jesus recorded. John the apostle records eight miracles, acknowledging that his list is not complete. The ones he wrote were for the purpose of bringing his readers to saving faith in Jesus.

Many precious souls are in heaven today because John wrote the things of Jesus Christ, proving that He is the Christ, the Son of God. Accepting that message they believed and were given eternal life. That message, written by John in the first century, is the same message one can read today. I challenge you to read John’s gospel over and over.

The message, while very profound, is very simple. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved.” (Acts 16:31)  I pray that the Holy Spirit will help those who read John’s gospel message of Jesus will believe and be saved.
