I have noticed that quite often when the NT is speaking of Christ's
sacrifice at the same time it speaks of His love, it places AGAPAW in the
aorist, instead of the present or imperfect. For instance, in John 3:16...

hOUTWS GAR HGAPHSEN hO THEOS TON KOSMON...

Is this intended to speak of the crucifixion as a loving-act?

Thanks,
