Some interpretations of the word "unique" attempt to preclude birth, yet the full Greek meaning is always in the context of a child (genes). A unique child is also a born child, hence the full meaning of the word "begotten" as found in John 3:16 (KJV), for example. In applying this to Christ's begottenness, He is unique (virgin birth, for ...
John 3:16 is the sixteenth verse in the third chapter of the Gospel of John, one of the four gospels in the New Testament. It is the most popular verse from the Bible [ 1 ] and is a summary of one of Christianity's central doctrines—the relationship between the Father (God) and the Son of God (Jesus) .
"Although John 3:16 famously declares that one is saved by believing in the Son, the subsequent verses, particularly John 3:17, [14] delve deeper into the reasons behind this belief, suggesting that it is fundamentally a matter of the heart's affections, loving darkness rather than light. Theologians John Piper and R.C. Sproul emphasize that ...
John Mill's 1707 Greek New Testament was estimated to contain some 30,000 variants in its accompanying textual apparatus [1] which was based on "nearly 100 [Greek] manuscripts." [ 2 ] Peter J. Gurry puts the number of non-spelling variants among New Testament manuscripts around 500,000, though he acknowledges his estimate is higher than all ...
The account claimed to review the textual evidence available [2] from ancient sources on two disputed Bible passages: 1 John 5:7 and 1 Timothy 3:16.

Hogan, originally from County Tipperary, but living in County Limerick, [3] [4] carried the John 3:7 sign as "a reminder that Jesus died for the sins of man". [1] Hogan originally had a sign which read "John 3:16" but changed this to the well known JOHN 3:7 after a Michael Jackson concert in Páirc Uí Chaoimh in 1988.
The language of 3 John echoes that of the Gospel of John, which is conventionally dated to around AD 90, so the epistle was likely written near the end of the first century. Others contest this view, such as the scholar John A. T. Robinson, who dates 3 John to c. AD 60–65. [3] The location of writing is unknown, but tradition places it in Ephesus
