JOHN 3:16
"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."
Original language
agapao (ἀγαπάω) — "loved" — refers to unconditional, self-giving love. Distinct from phileo (friendship) or eros (romantic). Used here to describe God's posture toward all humanity.
Historical context
Jesus speaks this to Nicodemus, a Pharisee who came at night — signaling his hesitation. This verse is the hinge of their conversation about being "born again."
