구절 설명

John 3:16 reveals that salvation begins in God’s initiative, not in human worthiness. The Son is given because the world is perishing, not because it is spiritually healthy.

장 내 맥락

Jesus is confronting Nicodemus with the necessity of new birth. The verse stands inside that confrontation and shows that divine love does not bypass the need for radical rebirth.

⚔️ 대립

This verse is often quoted for comfort while its diagnosis is ignored. It speaks of perishing, unbelief, and the necessity of God’s gift before it speaks of assurance.

🧭 해석상 주의

“World” highlights the scope of God’s saving purpose, not the innocence of humanity. The verse magnifies grace precisely because the world is lost.
