In his wonderful sermon, “Pride the Destroyer”, Charles Spurgeon preached,
But there is good news too. John 3 continues from verse 20 to verse 21,
"But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."

"Nobody loves me, everybody hates me, I think I am going to eat worms"...
If you feel sorry for yourself: Jesus said: "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. "
If you work, work and keep on working to earn your salvation and are not satisfied, he says to you: "You who have no money, come buy and eat. Why spend money on what is not bread. Give ear and come to me that your soul may live".
A prideful person “does not seek the Light of God. You can often notice that if a man has a high opinion of himself, he is extremely good and excellent and does not need to be saved by Grace. He does not want to be told too much about himself. He likes to go to a place of worship where they prophesy very smooth things and if he ever strays in where there is very plain talk, he says that the preacher is too personal. The Hindu thinks it is wicked to kill an insect, or to take life of any kind—and that he will surely not enter into his happy paradise if he does. When the missionary showed a Hindu, by means of a microscope, how many living creatures there were in a single drop of the water which was in a glass on the table, in order to convince him of the impossibility of avoiding the destruction of life if he drank the water, what did the Hindu do? Why, he smashed up the microscope! That was his way of answering it! And so, sometimes, if the Truth of God is put very plainly so that men cannot escape from the force of it, not wishing to know the uncomfortable Truth, they turn upon their heels and find fault with the preacher and refuse to hear any more from him!
We are the microscope. We show the truth of the hidden manna. We point the eye toward the hidden kingdom. Some will not even look through the lens! Others who dare to peer, will react as the Hindu did, and smash the Christian. Why is this?
For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. (John 3:20)
In 1845, American Preacher Daniel A. Clark said,
Wicked men hate the light, because it exposes his vileness. When the cellar has been shut up for years is first laid open, by the opening of knows and doors, it presents a disgusting sight. We wonder how so much filth could have accumulated there. So the dark and wicked heart of man seems unutterably vile and loathsome when God's Word and Spirit enters into it.(source, The American National Preacher, Volumes 19-22, 1845)
Wicked men hate the light, because it shows the necessity of a better character. The soul in love with sin is agonized with an apprehension of the necessity of reformation. Sinful habits let go their hold with a wonderful reluctance. They cry out, "let us alone," and they are expelled, just like the demons who were driven out by our Savior. The contrast which exists between good and bad men is painful to the wicked just as it is perceived.
But there is good news too. John 3 continues from verse 20 to verse 21,
"But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."

"Lord
Shiva, I am so tired, so weary, so much Karma to work out, so many reincarnations
to go through...and then once I am free form my earthly karma, there is
the astral karma on another astral planet...before I can get a chance to be god, when will the weary
merry-go-round end, will it ever?
In Matthew 11:28-29, Jesus said: "come unto me
all who are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest". The Lord
Jesus wants you to rest, and invites you to receive his free gift of
eternal life, he has bought it for you on the cross...No more trying to be good, no more performing good works to pacify you and earn salvation, no more need for
sleeping pills, no more drugs legal or illegal, no more booze, to numb your restless
conscience.
