Jesus came from heaven; he said it John 3:13. God sent him to save the world through him vs 16. Men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil vs 19-21. Vs 21, NIV. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly….
John 3:10-21
[10]Jesus answered, “You are a great teacher in Israel, and you don’t know this?
[11]I am telling you the truth: we speak of what we know and report what we have seen, yet none of you is willing to accept our message.
[12]You do not believe me when I tell you about the things of this world; how will you ever believe me, then, when I tell you about the things of heaven?
[13]And no one has ever gone up to heaven except the Son of Man, who came down from heaven.”
[14]As Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the desert, in the same way the Son of Man must be lifted up,
[15]so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.
[16]For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life.
[17]For God did not send his Son into the world to be its judge, but to be its saviour.
[18]Those who believe in the Son are not judged; but those who do not believe have already been judged, because they have not believed in God’s only Son.
[19]This is how the judgement works: the light has come into the world, but people love the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds are evil.
[20]All those who do evil things hate the light and will not come to the light, because they do not want their evil deeds to be shown up.
[21]But those who do what is true come to the light in order that the light may show that what they did was in obedience to God.
