Jesus, the Light of the World

In the gospel of John 8:12 our Lord Jesus Christ introduced himself as the Light of the world. In Matthew 5:13-16 he told his followers:  “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Our Lord Jesus Christ is not just the Light of the world his followers are also the light of the world. With him, there is no darkness at all. And to him be gory and praise both now and forevermore - Amen!
