John 3:16 is but one verse out of the over thirty thousand verses in scripture that many people use to identify their Christian beliefs. But what did Yeshua mean when he said "...just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, thus it is necessary that the Son of Man be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life." ? John seemed to have gained some idea. We're going to jump in, too.
