John 3:12-17

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

¹³No one has gone up into Heaven except the One who came down out of Heaven —the Son of the Man, who is in Heaven.

¹⁴Also, just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, just so the Son of the Man must be lifted up,

¹⁵so that everyone who believes into Him should not be wasted, but should have eternal life.

¹⁶Because God loved the world so much that He gave His only begotten Son, so that everyone who believes into Him should not be wasted, but should have eternal life.

¹⁷For God did not send His Son into the world in order to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved through Him.
