Context Readings

God's Love For The World

17 For God sent not his son into the world, to condemn the world: But that the world, through him, might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him shall not be condemned. But he that believeth not, is condemned already, because he believeth not in the name of the only son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation: that light is come into the world, and the men have loved darkness more than light, because their deeds were evil.
