What does this say in the context of the verse?
and if anyman hears My voice and believe NOT I judge him NOT, for I came NOT to judge the world but to SAVE the world. (John 12:47).
Context, context, context.
when Jesus came to earth , he did not do judgeing at that time .
For God sent forth his Son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him.
john 3;17
For the Son of man came to seek and to save what was lost."luke 19;10
However, Jesus cried out and said: "He that puts faith in me puts faith, not in me [only], but in him [also] that sent me;
45 and he that beholds me beholds [also] him that sent me.
46 I have come as a light into the world, in order that everyone putting faith in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 But if anyone hears my sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I came, not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 He that disregards me and does not receive my sayings has one to judge him. The word that I have spoken is what will judge him in the last day;
49 because I have not spoken out of my own impulse, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to tell and what to speak.
50 Also, I know that his commandment means everlasting life. Therefore the things I speak, just as the Father has told me [them], so I speak [them]."
john 12;44-50
Jehovah’s love for the world of mankind moved him to send Jesus so that those who put faith in him might be saved.
Whether people are saved will be determined by whether they obey the things God instructed Jesus to speak.
The judgment will take place "in the last day," during Christ’s Thousand Year Reign.
