Bible Question: did jesus die for the world? |
Bible Answer: Felease, in a certain sense, Jesus didn't die for "the world"; He created it (John 1:3) But according to John 3:16 God gave His Son in order to provide salvation to everyone in the world who believes in Jesus Christ. I like the way the Holman Christian Standard Bible translates this verse: "For God loved the world in this way: He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." The Bible never says that Jesus died so that the whole world WILL be saved, but that "everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." --Hank |
