Welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.

This year, we want to spend a few minutes with you every day walking through our study Christ and all of Scripture.

Each week we will dive deeply into two passages of Scripture, one from the Old Testament and one from the New,

seeing how they connect and point to Jesus.

Whether you are doing the study yourself or just following along with us here, we are

hopeful that through studying these passages each week, you will see how Christ is not only present

throughout the entire biblical story, but the center of it. Hey friends, welcome back to You're in the

Bible. My name is Alexa, and I'm joined by my co-host, Beth. Hey, everyone. So far this week,

we have looked at the Old Testament, specifically Ruth 4, 14, and 15. And so now we're going to be

turning to the New Testament and look at John 1010. So today we're going to discuss the annotations

for that passage. And so that verse reads, a thief comes only to steal and kill and

destroy. I have come that they may have life and have it in abundance. So, Alexa, how did this

annotation day go for you? It was both good and interesting. Good because I think this is such an

encouraging verse, but also interesting because

it's so short. Because it was so short, I found that some of the prompts were a little tricky,

one in particular being to know any attributes of God in the text. So after giving it some thought,

I know that John 1010 is Jesus's words. So Jesus's words of,

I have come remind me that God is the one who sent Jesus and specifically sent us Jesus to give us

life, which then reminded me of John 316 that says that God is to love the world that he gave us

Jesus so that we would have

eternal life. So I think the fact that Jesus has come and it's God who made it possible

for Jesus to come shows us God's love for us and also His grace to give us life in Him.
