John 1:9
John 1:9
That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
The symbol of light represents life, knowledge, and goodness. This verse reminds us that Jesus is the true light. The only real and true light is Christ, the one and only, absolutely perfect and perfect at all times. Additionally, unlike the Law of Moses, which was given only to the people of Israel, this light is given to everyone, everywhere. God has illuminated every human being born into this world since it is not God's intent that anyone perishes. Each of us receives the light of creation from the outside, and each of us is also given the light of conscience from the inside. Because of the light that humanity has received from God, all are responsible before Him. This is because all possess the knowledge that God exists. However, many refuse to acknowledge this truth. Nevertheless, we are God's adopted children since we have trusted in the Lord Jesus as our Savior and received the light of life in our hearts. It is God who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, who has shone into our hearts to enable us to see the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Thus, we should set our affections on things above and walk in the light as He is in the light.
Matthew 4:16
The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
Psalms 18:28
For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.
John 9:5
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
2 Corinthians 4:6
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God.
