JESUS – THE Light of the World

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)

Jesus is THE light of the world. This means: He is the only light! The world is in spiritual darkness. Many try to escape this darkness. But if they search for light outside of Jesus, they will not find it. There is no other.

This absolute claim is not popular in the world. Everyone wants to live as they please – “As long as it makes you happy.” The idea of one absolute truth is rejected. Instead, people piece together their own beliefs from various religions and worldviews.

Often, we even prefer to find “God” within ourselves. After all, every person wants to be their god… each one desires to rule their kingdom. But there was only one who wanted to become human: Jesus. Why?

Because He loves us so much that He wants to free us from spiritual darkness. He wants to give us His light. He wants to open our eyes to the truth. He wants to bring our hearts of stone to life. That is why He came into the world.

Are you living in His light?
