An Invitation from the Apostle John
The Apostle John, devoted his ministry and writings to revealing Jesus Christ as the eternal Word of God made flesh, who came to bring life and light to all people. In his Gospel, John presents Christ’s invitation as broad and unrestricted—“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). There is no distinction of race, class, or background limits…it’s God’s love and our belief.
In his epistles, John emphasizes that God’s love is the foundation of faith and fellowship, urging believers to walk in truth and love as evidence of truly knowing Christ. John’s work consistently testifies that the invitation of Christ is open to all, without partiality, and leads to eternal fellowship with God.
Finally, in the book of Revelation, John portrays Christ as the risen Lord who still calls individuals to Himself. His appeal is both urgent and personal, offering spiritual riches to all who will come: “I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see” (Revelation 3:18).
