John 3:11-17

¹¹Truly, truly do I say to thee, We speak that which we know, and testify that which we have seen; and ye receive not our testimony.

¹²If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how will ye believe if I tell you heavenly things?

¹³And no one hath ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, even the Son of man.

¹⁴And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up

¹⁵that every one who believeth in him may have everlasting life.

¹⁶For God so loved the world, that he gave the only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him may not perish, but may have everlasting life.

¹⁷For God sent not the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that through him the world might be saved.
