And this is the condemnation, that that light came into the worlde, and men loued darknesse rather then that light, because their deedes were euill. For euery man that euill doeth, hateth the light, neither commeth to light, least his deedes should be reprooued. But he that doeth trueth, commeth to the light, that his deedes might bee made manifest, that they are wrought according to God.
John 3:17 For God sent not his Sonne into the world, that he should condemne the world, but that the world through him might be saued.
John 3:18 Hee that beleeueth in him, is not condemned: but hee that beleeueth not, is condemned already, because he hath not beleeued in the Name of that onely begotten Sonne of God.
John 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that that light came into the worlde, and men loued darknesse rather then that light, because their deedes were euill.
John 3:20 For euery man that euill doeth, hateth the light, neither commeth to light, least his deedes should be reprooued.
John 3:21 But he that doeth trueth, commeth to the light, that his deedes might bee made manifest, that they are wrought according to God.
John 3:22 After these things, came Iesus and his disciples into the lande of Iudea, and there taried with them, and baptized.
John 3:23 And Iohn also baptized in Enon besides Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
The verse centers on "world", "condemn", "light", "darkness", "condemnation", "came", "worlde", and "loued". It is saying that the contrast between light and darkness marks a real divide in how people respond to God's work.
The nearby context moves from verse 18's "Hee that beleeueth in him is not..." into verse 22's "After these things came Iesus and his...", so "world" and "condemn" belong inside that flow. In Jesus Explains God's Saving Love, the local focus is new birth, eternal life, belief and unbelief, and God's saving love.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "world" and "condemn" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
