When my wife and I were on a mission trip to Rome, we were introduced to a man who grew up Catholic. At the age of twenty years old, he experienced a crisis due to those in the Catholic faith saying one thing but doing another. So, he decided to become an atheist, one who believes that there is no God. At the same time, he decided to go to the university to study philosophy. He pridefully wanted to use the tools he learned from philosophy to write a book against God and the Bible. First, he thought he would start with reading theology books, but those books were what others said about the Bible.

So, he decided to read the Bible starting with the book of Matthew. When he finished reading Matthew, with a new understanding that he was a sinner, he fell down on his knees with tears in his eyes, and gave his heart to Jesus. After he rose to his feet, he felt great joy because he was born again.

 For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.”

This story is a testimony to Jesus having the power to save those who seek to disprove Him. In this lesson, we will see that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever put their faith in Him will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16).
