What do you believe Jesus meant when He said God so loved the world He gave His son? What does it mean that we must believe in this to have everlasting life?

well to that, i can say that i began with your belief, and now suspect it. It is virtually no longer welcome. If it were a matter of some failing to display the right fruit, as i believed for...ever, that would be one thing. But i have come to see it as something different; as essentially subordinating love to law.
This might sound harsh, written in a post; but it is undeniable that all i would need to be considered "saved" by you is that i agree with what you are saying. And if i disagree, i am "lost."
