ONLY GOD LOVED THE WHOLE WORLD. NO ONE ELSE. THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST IS ALL ABOUT LOVE.

Read John 3:16. "FOR," provided the reason as well as the source. "GOD SO." This was God's doing which is marvelous in our eyes. God is a Spirit (Jn. 4:24), that is to say, He is non material personal Being, Self-conscious and Self-determining. God is everywhere (Infinite). God is the Creator as well as the Supreme Governor of His creation. "LOVED." Old English LOVEL, later LUFU, developed from Old Frisian LUVE, Old High German LUBA, Latin LUBET, meaning life. Love is not a strong desire which actually is the description of immorality. LIFE is German in origin LEIB, Dutch LIJF, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian all use the word LIV. The extent of God's love: "THE WORLD," that is, Hebrew ERETS, the earth, ground; Hebrew OLAM, long duration: past, present and future; and Greek KOSMOS, referring to man, and his responsibility given him by God to govern the whole created things. God had not hated things He created. Genesis 1:31 makes it clear: "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good ..." God loves everybody and had given them opportunity to live in this world. To believers, God had given you chance to prove your faith. To unbelievers, God had given you chance to become believers. "THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON." That is, God's love was the giving of the life of Jesus Christ, a crystal clear description of love. God did not give the pope. This was satanic work. God did not give Mohammed. This was satanic worship. God didn't give denominations or ministries. This was religious racism, hatred, the opposite of love which is death, coming from Satan himself. God didn't give politics. It was Satan through human beings. "THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM". None is excluded, and all are invited to come to Jesus Christ. Exclusion is from personal freewill. To BELIEVE in Jesus Christ, is to rely, trust, or plainly have FAITH in Him. BELIEVE IN Jesus Christ is compulsory for the reception of love from God. Rejection to BELIEVE IN Jesus Christ is personal exclusion from the love of God. "SHOULD NOT PERISH." Greek ME APOLETAI, the verb intransitively meaning "to be found in the place people got themselves lost," and to be snatched from suffering the destruction in hell. "BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE." That is, have a life without end, forever, an everlasting love. This point had been greatly missed by the Pentecostals, or Charismatics, elsewhere called "Word of Faith Movement." God didn't give Jesus Christ for a person to live a better life on earth now. God didn't give Jesus Christ for people to be prosperous materially in this world. God gave Jesus Christ for the salvation of lost souls in the satanic kingdom of darkness. "ONLY BEGOTTEN SON." Understood as "the ONLY Saviour" to all who believed, cf. Acts 4:12. Jesus called Himself "Son of man" in Jn. 3:13-14; Mt. 11:19; 16:13; 17:12; Lk. 9:56 and "Son of God," Only begotten in Jn. 3:16-17. As the Son of man, He is the "heir" of God's promises to man (Hebrews 1:2), man as God intended man to be, the perfect man, genuine/ original Christian, saved by grace effected by atoning work of Jesus Christ at Calvary. As Son of God, He is the unique, beloved, only begotten, Son of the Father, very God."
