Verily, verily I say unto thee, we speak that we know, and testify that we have seen: And ye receive not our witness. If, when I tell you earthly things, ye believe not: How should ye believe if I shall tell you of heavenly things? And no man ascendeth up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, that is to say, the son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lift up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the son of man be lift up, that none that believeth in him perish: but have eternal life.

And this is the condemnation: that light is come into the world, and the men have loved darkness more than light, because their deeds were evil. For every man that evil doeth, hateth the light: neither cometh to light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doth truth, cometh to the light, that his deeds might be known, how that they are wrought in God."
