Pastor Bill. Always good to see you. What does this mean Pastor Bill? John 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.”
Thanks Raider- what does John 3:17 mean? It means that the whole world is already living in a state of condemnation, and that the purpose of the Incarnation of the Son of God, was to translate as many of us as are willing, out of that state of condemnation into a new state of Right Standing with God, of course all due to John 3:14-16.
