16 God loved the world so very, very much that he gave his only Son. Because he did that, everyone who believes in him will not lose his life, but will live for ever.

17 God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world. He sent him to save the world.

18 Everyone who believes in the Son will not be judged. But everyone who does not believe in him is judged already, because he does not believe in the name of Gods only Son.

19 Light came into the world. But people wanted to be in the dark because they did wrong things. They did not want the light. That is why they are judged.
