"This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."
Light has come into the world
John 1:4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men.
but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil
Psalm 52:3 You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.
John 7:7 "The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that what it does is evil."
Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed
Ephesians 5:11-14 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: "Wake up. O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."
