John 3:16 is one of the most well-known verses in Scripture, often quoted to summarize the message of the gospel: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” While this verse captures God’s unconditional love and promise of eternal […]
