In this sermon, Jesse Lockhart reflects on the depth and sweetness of faith in Jesus, centering on the well‑known verse John 3:16. He begins with everyday imagery—like enjoying a cherry pie—to illustrate how the more one experiences Christ, the richer and more satisfying He becomes. Lockhart then recounts Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus, emphasizing the necessity of being born again and the profound truth that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son.” He explores the immeasurable love of God, tracing it back to creation, the fall of Adam and Eve, and the foreshadowing of Christ’s sacrifice through Old Testament offerings such as the bullock, lamb, scapegoat, and dove. Each symbol points to Jesus’ willing obedience, His role as the suffering servant, and His gift of peace. Lockhart highlights the inclusiveness of salvation through the word “whosoever,” underscoring that God’s love extends to all, regardless of status or past. He closes by reminding listeners that Christ’s sacrifice brings eternal life, true peace, and spiritual riches greater than any earthly wealth.
