For
GOD
(not Buddha, not Allah, not Lao Tsu, not The Source, not The Force)
so
LOVED
(not pitied, not judged, not
condemned, not ignored, not ridiculed, not gave up on)
the
WORLD
(anyone and everyone, each and
every last person who ever lived on this planet)
that
HE
GAVE (not coerced, not bribed,
not conned, not commanded, but willingly)
HIS
ONE AND ONLY SON (not his servant,
not his slave, not some random person off the street, but His SON)
SO
THAT (purposefully, intentionally,
with full planning and forethought)
WHOEVER
(anyone, everyone, each and every
last person who ever lived on this planet)
BELIEVES
IN (trusts, hopes in, relies on, calls
upon as their Lord and Savior)
HIM (Jesus, The Son, God Incarnate, Creator of The
Universe, King of King and Lord of Lords)
shall
NOT
PERISH (spend eternity in Hell, separated from every good thing Forever. And Ever.)
but HAVE
(possess, claim)
ETERNAL
LIFE. (Happily Ever After in Heaven
with God and Jesus. Forever. And Ever.)
― St. Athanasius of Alexandria
