12. If I tell you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
13. And no one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven—the Son of Man.
14. And just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, thus it is necessary that the Son of Man be lifted up,
15. so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life.”
16. For in this way God loved the world, so that he gave his one and only Son, in order that everyone who believes in him will not perish, but will have eternal life.
17. For God did not send his Son into the world in order that he should judge the world, but in order that the world should be saved through him.
18. The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has already been judged, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God.
