Lord Jesus Christ is the true light. He is the Son of God, the very God Himself. His teachings give us great insight into our sinful life on this earth and joyful life in eternity. Apostle John explains that the true Light, which lights every man born into this world, was Lord Jesus Christ. He came into the world, which He made, and lived among men, but the world did not know Him, nor did the world perceive who He was. He came unto His own, and His own did not receive Him. The Lord gave the privilege to become the sons of God to all those who believed Him, even to them that believed on His name, and were born of God; not of flesh and blood, or of the desires of the flesh. The Word became incarnate God and lived among us and He was Lord Jesus Christ. "That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and truth" (John 1:9-14).
