John 3:16

 Good morning everyone.  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!!

  You may hear people or preachers that don't quote scripture correctly.  When this happens it is possible to mislead people who are either being witnessed to or in the discussion and interpretation of the Word of God.

  This morning I heard a preacher quote John 3:16 that (please note the error) 16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only forgotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

  The scripture DOES NOT SAY FORGOTTEN!! Here is the actual King James Version: 16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

  The word is "begotten" not forgotten.  There is a big difference between the two.  To be forgotten is the knowledge of that person or thing is no longer, it is lost, and one can no longer remember.

  BUT, BEGOTTEN is speaking of someone who is brought into existence and will inherit the land or kingdom of the father.

  This is JESUS and we must remember, HE is the BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, not forgotten, and HE will return to INHERIT HIS LAND (earth) and establish HIS KINGDOM!!

  Jesus is the reason for this season and we need to remember HE IS THE BEGOTTEN SON who will return to claim HIS INHERITANCE!!  

  When you quote the Bible or paraphrase the Bible be certain that you quote correctly.  Thank you for reading and may your week be blessed, not worrying about gifts, but thinking of the LOVE that GOD HAS FOR YOU!!  Love y'all.

In Christ's Love and Grace

p.s. don't forget John 3:17 ---17 For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
