This is the judgment, “The light has come into the world and is here! Men loved rather the darkness than the light, because their works were pernicious. Everyone who practices evil hates the light and does not come and face up to the light lest his works be reproved and rebuked.
But he who desires, by god’s grace, to live in the truth comes and faces up to the light in order that his works might be clearly shown to have been produced by God. God, the father, loves His son, and has given all things into his hands. The one who places his trust in the son has eternal life. But he who refuses to place his trust in the son, being of such a nature that he refuses to be persuaded, shall not see life, but the wrath of God is abiding on him. Everyone who drinks of the water Jesus the Christ gives them will never thirst again. The water he gives will become in us a spring of water welling up to eternal life.
