God's Word for Saturday, 9/29/18

Statement:
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
John 3:20-21 KJV


Exposition:
“This is the crisis we’re in: God-light streamed into the world, but men and women everywhere ran for the darkness. They went for the darkness because they were not really interested in pleasing God. Everyone who makes a practice of doing evil, addicted to denial and illusion, hates God-light and won’t come near it, fearing a painful exposure. But anyone working and living in truth and reality welcomes God-light so the work can be seen for the God-work it is.”
John 3:20-21 MSG

Definitely confusing to me, so I like the dual post.
Thank you, Reverend.

Rev. Paul said...

You're welcome, Linda; I'm glad it helped.

I like the KJV, but that's what I grew up with. Thanks!

Rev. Paul said...

No worries, my friend. You're welcome. :)

Fascinating that modern culture has essentially glorified running into the darkness while pretending it is the light.

Rev. Paul said...

Indeed, it's going according to The Book.
