Jesus dying for us, and we should die for others.

John 3:16 was God's part--1 John 3:16 is ours!

"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." (Jn.3:16)

Jesus made the way for us to be saved when He climbed Mount Calvary and died alone for the sins of the World! That was a price that He alone could pay for you and me!--But He did it!

"Hereby perceive we the love of God, because He laid down His life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren." (1 Jn.3:16)

Jesus alone could save us, but He cannot save us alone.--If we're really saved, we're going to want to take others with us. We can't work for our own Salvation, but we can work for the Salvation of others! Our works are not required for Salvation, but they will come as works of love and labours of love for the Lord! They're a manifestation of Salvation and our love for the Lord and others! Once we get saved, the most important job each of us has is to give our lives daily in loving concern and care for others! Jesus came to love the World, and He calls us to do likewise in every facet of our lives!
