Hi, I have a friend that I used to know when I lived in California, we have been having disagreements. He posted "I don't care about what happens to the rest of the world." Then I said "I care & I know that Jesus cares too." Then He said "Really? show me in scripture where Jesus says he cares about the world?" I know that there must be something in the Bible where Jesus say's that he cares about the world, I know he cares about people. God created people & God create the world, I don’t see how Jesus would not care about the world. I figure you would be the one to ask since you are more educated in the subject than I? Can you help me find where in the Bible Jesus says anything about caring about the world?? thank you

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Thank you, but i would like to find somewhere in the Bible where it says that "Jesus" loved or even cared about the world. It just seems so dumb to think that Jesus doesnt care about the world.

Jesus gave His life for sins He didn't commit. If that doesn't show He cared for the world, I don't know what does. I don't know one person who would volunteer to be crucified, do you? And I'm not being flip here. I think that makes the point. He died for all of us.

Howdy and welcome to the Forum.

This is an argument that should never have happened. The initial premise is so ludicrous that I don't even know where to begin.

Which parts does he think God hates? Did he specify a country that he considered too vile for God to love? Did he state a reason why God would love us and not them, some inherent quality in some other part of the world that we don't have?
