For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!

Whoever believes in the Son [Jesus Christ] has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

Sin that is forgiven.

If we have committed sin, which is judged according to the light, and the sin is confessed, in that the will no longer takes part in the sin, He is faithful and just to forgive us, and to cleanse us from all sin. However, on the other hand if we say we have not sinned, it indicates that there is no truth in us, because we have no idea of reality – that is, the truth – and furthermore, we make God a liar, as He knows that all have sinned. If we make God a liar, his word cannot be in us. In summary: 1) we lie, 2) the truth is not in us and 3) we make God a liar. We require fellowship with God in the light, which in practical daily living, will enable us to connect to Him that forgives, for we will want to confess the sin the light has revealed. As John writes: But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 John 1:7 NKJV)
