But by the same word the present heavens and earth are held in store for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

He came as a witness to testify about the light, so that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but he came to testify about the light. The true light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was created through Him, yet the world did not recognize Him.
