John 3:18
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.
I wonder what happens to folks who are CONDEMNED?
Those that are condemned will suffer death as laid out a few verses before (3:16).
I find it interesting to look at the meaning of words and the meaning of the words that got translated into English words. We may have a concept of what we think “condemned” means, but that English word was used to describe the Greek word used in the original text. Here is a link to help with that:
