I believe God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son... How does God stop loving the world so (here, the term 'so' referring back to how He loves the world).
Did Jesus Die on The Cross for The Just/Elect/Saved Whose Names Are Written in The Book of Life OR

Im a Christian why ? Did you understand the post ? Which Faith do you mean ? Of the Law or of the Spirit of regeneration ?
Yes He does, He surely didnt Love them and then threw them in Hell. If Christ Loved them He is their Saviour who died for them and gives them both repentance and forgiveness of sins Acts 5:31
31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
The people of acts were cut to the heart. And recieved the words of Peter. They repented and were saved.
Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him as righteousness.
We are saved by this same faith.
Its not a condition per say.
when a rescuer comes to rescue you from a fire where you are physically trapped and unable to save yourself. You do not save yourself by recieving his offer of salvation And doing what he says in faith. He saved you
But you can reject his offer of salvation in pride. And suffer your fate that was going to happen anyway because you were unable to save yourself.
So is the world in Jn 3:16 the same world in Jn 17:9
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
Yes or no please
Yes,
so that whoever in that world believes will not perish, and live forever.
God came into the world to save sinners
God said the gates of hell will not prevail aganst the church, we will go into the world
God told us to go into the world and make disciples of everyone
Yes, he is not praying for those who chose to follow the world system,
He is praying for those who through faith are rescued from the world.
Yes ? I dont believe that for one second. I dont believe Christ loved and died for satan and his seed, children
I dont believe you. Christ would never refuse to pray for a world He died for.
I mean Faith necessary for Salvation. In the Scripture you quoted "judgement, mercy, faith" are not works of the Law but rather moral righteousness.
I know that, but what Faith ? Is it mans faith a duty under the law Matt 23 or the Faith which is the fruit of the Spirit, regeneration.
