1 John 5:20 "And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life."
Jesus came to earth for very specific reasons. He was the bridge between us and the Father, His sacrifice is our salvation making a relationship with a Holy God possible. In order to make this happen, He had to bring us out of the darkness of sin and ignorance, into the light of His righteousness and knowledge.
1 John 12:46 "I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness."
He is the Light that brings understanding to our darkness. Darkness attempts to hide the Truth, but it cannot stand when confronted with the Light. Darkness attempts to keep us from the true God, and thereby from eternal life. But if fails every time when pitted against His Light.
Have I experienced the Light of God's Truth and understanding? Am I daily walking in that Light? How does it influence my choices and way of life?
