John 3:17

God didn't send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Free Bible Version

In The King James Version

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

In Context

16For God loved the world, and this is how: he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who trusts in him shouldn't die, but have eternal life.

18Those who trust in him are not condemned, while those who don't trust in him are condemned already because they didn't trust in the one and only Son of God.
