Scrisual Art (John 5:24)

John 5:24
“Truly, truly, I say to you,

whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life.
He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.”

JOHN 3:16 might be the most well-known verse of scripture in the world. It’s the one I’ve seen most often on signs, posters, websites and advertisements. Even my bible study software opens to this verse by default.

“For God so loved the world
that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life.”

I was surprised when I stumbled into JOHN 5:24.
It has a similar message,
but I’ve never heard anyone mention it before!

“Truly, truly, I say to you,
whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me
has eternal life.
He does not come into judgment,
but has passed from death to life.”

Either of these verses would be appropriate for the painting, but I chose to highlight the lesser known one. I have more trust in teachings that are repeated (and grateful for different wording, because it deepens my understanding).

Every time I read it I marvel at its simplicity, and I’m happy to report that I have passed from death to life. What a promise!
