Context

This verse is part of a conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus. Nicodemus was a religious leader curious about Jesus. He wanted to understand this new teaching about God’s kingdom. Here, Jesus reveals the heart of God’s message.

Meaning

At its core, this verse tells us about God’s incredible love. It’s not just a warm feeling. It’s action. God loved the world so much that He gave His only Son. That’s huge. It means He was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for us. We often think of love as something we feel. But here, love is about giving. God didn’t just say He loves us. He showed it.

When we believe in Jesus, we receive a promise of eternal life. This isn’t just about living forever. It’s about experiencing a deep relationship with God that starts now and lasts forever. God wants us to be part of His family. That’s the kind of love that can change our lives today.
