- Does the Gospel have a Goal? It does. There is a mark it wants to hit and that is you fully alive (John 3:16, 10:10). This is the goal of the gospel. This is longing of the soul. And you can't have the fullness of life without the One who is Life, JESUS (John 14:6).

Did you know that the gospel has a goal that it's trying to hit? Now, in the gospel of John, if you take the most famous Bible verse, probably that most people, even if they don't know what the words of it are, they know John 3:16, they've seen it like a football game written on somebody's helmet, which by the way, I'm so sports dumb. The fact that I'm using that as a reference lets you know that this is definitely from the Holy Spirit, okay? But here's the thing. When you see that, you automatically recognize it. This Bible verse says that God so loved the world that he sent his son Jesus, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. The goal of the gospel, the mark that is trying to hit is you fully alive. In John 10:10, Jesus literally says, I have come that you might have a life and have it to the full, abundant, overflowing life.
(00:58):
If you hear that and you go, look, if you're trying to get me to give my life to Jesus, it's not going to work. You're not going to trick me. I know who I am. I've lived so much life. I've figured me out. Listen, I'm telling you from somebody who was in addiction for over 11 years, hated Christianity most of my life. I'm telling you right now that you can never know who you really are till you give your life to Jesus. That's the real you. The real you is the you fully alive in Jesus, full of hope, full of peace, full of joy, free from addiction, free from depression, free from suicide. You are meant to be fully alive. There are so many things that are trying to rob us and get us sidetracked from what it is that He's called us to, and I get it.
(01:44):
But I want you to understand something that when you read this thing, it's not just about a list of things that you have to do. It's a list of who you get to be. You get to be alive. You get to be the real you. Stop looking at it as like a list of bummers. He's calling you not from bummer to bummer, but from glory to glory. You're meant to be alive. So I want you to understand that as you read the gospel, Jesus isn't just trying to get you to stop doing things. He's literally trying to bring you to life to become who you're meant to be. There's a reason why he sent his son to die, to pay the price you could never pay to make the way you could never make it wasn't just because it seemed like a good idea. It's because you are made to be alive and you were destined for death without him from separation for eternity. From the one whose very name and the very source of his character, who he is, his life, you can't have it without him. He's the source and he is calling you in to everlasting life. This is why he says he's the bread of life. This is why he says he's living water. You are meant not to be the walking dead, but to meant to be fully alive in Jesus.
