Psalm 3:16

Open Bible with John 3:16 in red letters

Psalm 3:16 – Looking for the quote by Kim Chiu? It was actually from John 3:16 (Psalm Chapter 3 only has 8 verses).

Psalm 3:16 was referenced by Kim Chiu on Showtime in September of 2021. What she was referring to is John 3:16. See the verse below in different Bible versions. This verse is one of the most well-known in the Bible and has been called “The Gospel in a Nutshell” because it condenses God’s whole plan from the start of time and throughout scripture into this tiny verse.
