The Purpose of Jesus

“For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved.” (John 3:17)

The purpose of the law was to show men the error of their ways and bring condemnation. The purpose of the Son of God is to seek and to save those who are condemned already. Jesus told the woman taken in adultery in the eighth chapter of John, “Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more.” The law had said the woman should be stoned to death. But Jesus offered to her what He offers every sinner, forgiveness of sins and a new life of salvation. You may receive your gift of eternal life by faith in Jesus, the Son of God.
