Eccl 3:1-4
To everything there is a season,A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born,And a time to die; A time to plant,And a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill,And a time to heal; A time to break down, And a time to build up; A time to weep,And a time to laugh; A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
John 3:14-17
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him, man might be saved.
