Bible Reference & Cartoon Description

John 3:19-21 (ANIV)
19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21 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.” [1]

[1]
Some interpreters end the quotation after John 3:15.

DRAWING NOTES:

TIME OF DAY:
Indeterminate – Night?

LIGHTING NOTES:
Jesus is the light of te world – & therefore the light source in this picture.

CHARACTERS PRESENT:
Jesus.
Al those people who reject Jesus (on the left) & all those who accept Jesus (on the right)

RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
I wanted those people who accepted Jesus & the gospel to be happy to be close to Him. Whilst those who were uncertain are off to the right. The group of dark people/creatuers on the left of the picture are evil, they belong to the kingdom of darkness & hate Jesus & His kingdom of light.

Bible Doctrine Notes
3:18-21 SIN, Individual Choice (2.52B)
One aspect of Jesus (the light (John 8:12)) is to reveal us for what we are: either of God, or not. The Son of God demands that we either remain in the darkness of our unbelief, or else we believe in Him and come into the light. There is no middle, neutral position that can be taken: Jesus confronts us with only these two choices. We refuse to believe because our depraved lifestyles prefer sin to Jesus. This depravity comes because we choose evil deeds; the consequence is guilt and fear of God. We know our wickedness becomes evident in the presence of Jesus’ purity. Despite this, we are not beyond hope; since Jesus came to save sinners like us.

3:19 Jesus Christ, Light (1.24F)
See note on John 1:4-5, which says:
Life involves conflict between God, who is entirely good, and evil powers. Evil is darkness, which shuts out opportunity to see or know good. God id the source of light which exposes evil for what it is. Jesus is that light in person, exposing the evil of the world and pointing the way to God. Compare John 8:12; 12:46; 1 John 2:8.

3:19-21 CHRISTIAN ETHICS, Character (4.41A)
Evil character causes people to reject Jesus. Either people are totally devoted in love to the darkness of the world’s way, or they are ready to have their lives examined and changed by Jesus, the Light of the world. People who are devoted to the ways of darkness are fearful of what the Light would reveal in their lives. People dedicated to truth in knowledge and action come to Christ and give evidence that God is at work in Christ’s coming.
