#323: God Loved the World
Jul. 26th, 2019 10:22 pmIs the alto part pretty boring?
Yeah. #gettingthatD
Is the rhyme scheme questionable?
Kind of. They have death/faith twice.
Isn't the titular verse the one they keep putting on big signs at football games and stuff?
Yes.
Is it particularly judgmental?
No, just catchy. "For God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life." That's a one-way implication, it doesn't also say "however anyone who does not believe in him will perish so get your act together, sinners."

Isn't that the fallacy of assuming the converse?
Yes, yes, you're very smart.
