Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

  • A 12-13 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
    • B 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
      • C 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
        • D 16a For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
      • C' 16b that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
    • B' 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
  • A' 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
