How God is Saving the World, According to Jesus

We live in a wonderful world! A wonderfully flawed, sometimes violent, totally unpredictable, and definitely unsafe world. It’s broken and beautiful. Whatever you might believe about Jesus, he was definitely bold about his claim that God’s desire is to save this broken world through him, God’s Son, Jesus. 

But what does that mean?

Millions of Christians can quote John 3:16, but our finite human minds can’t even begin to comprehend the magnitude of God’s love for his creation, much less understand the ways in which he is saving, redeeming, and renewing the entire cosmos.

So let’s have a conversation about that. What did Jesus really mean when he said we couldn’t see the kingdom of God unless we were born again, or that God loved the world by sending his son to save it? We have to start by removing many of our wrong assumptions and approaching Jesus in a fresh way.
