Some of the Writing Contest's terms and conditions posted on the social media read:

"Paying $20 entry fee, writing 1-page story with 350 words maximum
One entry each person or household
Any unmet terms and conditions will disqualify the participant"

As a 'headline' offering salvation from God, where can you find John 3:16's 'see store for details', such as references, terms and conditions, or fine print in the Scripture?

One of them is on the following 20 verses:

"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not have life, but will remain under God's punishment." (John 3:36)

So, the word believe in John 3:16 is clearly not referring to Charles Blondin's 'believers'. In fact, John 3:16 is all about nothing but the 'action' of faith.

Headline 1: "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Reference 1: "For we are Gods workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life." (Ephesians 2:10)

Headline 2: "I give them eternal life, they'll never be lost, and no one will snatch them out of my hand." (John 10:28)

Terms and Conditions 2: "My sheep listen to My voice, I know them, and they follow Me." (John 10:27)

To listen and to follow here specifically indicate habitual actions. Indeed, the sheep that stay faithful and obedient to the shepherd will never get lost!
