THE LIGHT SHINING
The coming of Jesus to live among us was to bring us the message of His Father and of his Kingdom. A great part of this message was to example ‘a new and living way’ to live. The three main identifiers he mentioned repeatedly were love, light and life. These are not only taught, but they are the basis of the ‘born from above’ life (John 3:3-8).Love: “This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you” (John 15:12).
Light: “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14).
Life: “I have come so that they may have life and have it in abundance” (John 10:10).
What a wonderful way to live.
“I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.”
