the light, that his works may not be reproved.

3:21. But he that doth truth cometh to the light, that his works may be
made manifest: because they are done in God.

He that doth truth... that is, he that acteth according to truth, which
here signifies the Law of God. Thy law is truth. Psa. 118. 142.

heaven is above all.

3:32. And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth: and no man
receiveth his testimony.

3:33. He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God

3:36. He that believeth in the Son hath life everlasting: but he that
believeth not the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abideth
on him.
