“The Light of the World”

Blessings folk!

Jesus is the Light!

Read what He said…

John 8:12-20

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying,
“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness,
but will have the light of life.”

So the Pharisees said to him,
“You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true.”

Jesus answered,
“Even if I do bear witness about myself,
my testimony is true,
for I know where I came from and where I am going,
but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.

Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone who judge,
but I and the Father who sent me.

In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true.

I am the one who bears witness about myself,
and the Father who sent me bears witness about me.”

They said to him therefore,
“Where is your Father?”
Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father.
If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”

These words he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple;
but no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.

Jesus declared He is the Light of the world.

The religious rulers were apoplectic.
They focused on the minutiae of the law - “bearing witness about yourself” - rather than the truth the Lord was speaking.

The Lord’s testimony is true.
He is the Light.

He testifies of such.
Father testifies of this truth.

Jesus cuts to the point.
The religious rulers did not know Him or Father.

Nothing has changed.
