Do you think they have ever read John
especially chapter 3, verse 16?

Must be a different version than any of the ones I have ever seen...

1. Where is this cup from?
Cause I don't want to spend any money there.

3. As I recall John 3:16 is something like this...
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

I read the bible through a couple of times as a kid and teenager, and I don't reacall any mention of the U.S.A.

So where did you get the cup?

7. I see it differently
IMO the message doesnt mean John 3:16 = God Bless America, I think the message is John 3:16 + God Bless America. Thats how I see it anyway.

8. I agree, I think those are two different religious statements on one plastic cup.
