NASB | John 3:16 ¶ "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 3:16 ¶ "For God so [greatly] loved and dearly prized the world, that He [even] gave His [One and] only begotten Son, so that whoever believes and trusts in Him [as Savior] shall not perish, but have eternal life. |
Bible Question: I have often heard it said that God's Love is unconditional. John 3:16 is quoted to prove this. Is God's love unconditional, or are there conditions ? |
Bible Answer: Gods Love (IS) unconditional, however salvation, (the eternal life mentioned in Jn 3:16) is not. Those who would rather justify and remain in their sin and ignorance, will argue this fact. George |
