John 3: God Heals darkness... with True Light

Up to this point John has used short storeis, but now as John uses a longer conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus.  This helps to enlighten and reveal Jesus' central message of his life and mission. Read John 3, if you are in a rush... check out the video link below (2 min.) and here are a few "outtakes" from chapter 3.

"Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3

"Truly, truly I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God."  John 3:5

"Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness  to what we have seen..." John 3:11

"...the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light..." John 3:19

Click on the link and watch this video entitled "Collide".  Watch it completely! It is worth your time!http://vimeo.com/10662312

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condmen the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him." John 3:16-17

"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life..." John 3: 36
