The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.

(John testified concerning him. He cried out, saying, “This is the one I spoke about when I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’”)
-
He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”

John Testifies About Jesus
The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
-
This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’
-
Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him.
-
And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
-
“Come,” he replied, “and you will see.” So they went and saw where he was staying, and they spent that day with him. It was about four in the afternoon.

and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside

This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people 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 their deeds will be exposed.
-
But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.
-
Now John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because there was plenty of water, and people were coming and being baptized.

The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is full of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete.
-
The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks as one from the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all.
-
The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
-
He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
-
“Woman,” Jesus replied, “believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
-
Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
-
The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
-
“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?”
