Clip - Sinners, don't despair!

Jim Butler · 2021-12-30 · John 4:27–42 · 235 words · 2 min

And for sinners today, listen 
to Jesus. Certainly listen to the woman 
of Samaria. Certainly listen to these Samaritan 
villagers who testify that He is the Christ and He is the Savior 
of the world. But be in the Word of God. Read 
the gospel narratives. Learn of Jesus. Read Luke 15. If you're a sinner, and by sinner 
I mean all of us are sinner, but there are some saved by grace 
and others that are not. And if you're one of the others 
that are not, don't despair, don't sorrow, don't be distressed. 
Rather, come and see. Listen to the Savior, read Luke 
15, see the heart of Jesus, see His benevolence, see His beneficence, 
see that John 3, 16 is a reality. God so loved the world that He 
gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should 
not perish but have everlasting life. This is John's goal for 
you today. He says in verses 30 and 31 in 
chapter 20, and truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence 
of his disciples, which are not written in this book, but these 
are written that you, Not me, I have by grace, but you is what 
he says in chapter 20 in verses 30 and 31. That you may believe 
that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing 
you may have life in his name.
