scripture: john 3:17-3:21

Jesus was sent into the world to save it, not to condemn it. There is no condemnation for those who are in Jesus. Jesus is the light of the world, but it isn't our natural tendency to come to the light. It's the sovereign work of God that moves us in that direction.

When Jesus said to Nicodemus that, “whoever lives by the truth comes into the light” ___ it’s like saying from now on I’m going to live a transparent life. Jesus went on to say to Nicodemus that when people live truthful lives, “what they have done has been done in the sight of God.” In other words if that’s you and me we have God’s tick of approval for living.
