John 3:17-18
“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
A powerful scripture that supports the verse before it – John 3:16.
God loves the world.
Jesus did not come out of meanest and spite to punish everyone.
He came to seek and to save that which is lost.
Without Christ, every individual stands condemned already because our sin signs a death warrant for each of us.
Belief in Jesus as your personal Savior removes the curse and condemnation of sin.
However, your belief cannot be just in your head but in your heart.
Your belief in Jesus is coupled with a life change, where your old life passes away and a new life emerges.
