¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

³¹ And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

⁴ Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

¹⁷ And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
