Forever 21

I love shopping at Forever 21, but up until recently I’ve never noticed the biblical reference on the bottom of their bags. “John 3:16″. So I did a little research. The founder of Forever 21, Do-Won Chang, had “John 3:16″ printed on the bags because he wanted to show a reflection his Christian faith.

Religious beliefs are the cause of major conflicts throughout the world and have been since the beginning of time, so for such a bold statement to be placed on something so public maybe be insulting to certain people. However, I believe that Mr. Chang was not trying to be controversial. I think he was simply sharing his beliefs with the world. If he were trying to start drama, don’t you think “John 3:16″ would be printed much larger and in a more obvious place?

Personally, I think it’s great to see someone who is not afraid to stand up for something they believe in.

John 3:16
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
