Yes, God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him would not be lost but have eternal life.

But I know you—I know that you have no love for God.

Jesus said to them, “If God were really your Father, you would love me. I came from God, and now I am here. I did not come by my own authority. God sent me.

They loved praise from people more than praise from God.

The Father himself loves you because you have loved me. And he loves you because you have believed that I came from God.
