19 “Now this is the basis for the condemning, that the Light has come into the world, but the people loved the darkness rather than the light because their deeds were malignant. 20 For whoever practices evil hates the light and doesn’t come to the light so that his deeds may not be exposed. 21 But whoever does the truth comes to the light so that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they are done in God.”
