John 3:13-17

NSB(i) 13 »No one has ever ascended into heaven but the Son of man who descended from heaven. 14 »As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so the Son of man must also be lifted up. 15 »Everyone who has an active faith in him may have everlasting life. 16 »For God loved the world so much, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever has an active faith in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 »God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world. Instead the world should be saved through him.
