"The TRUE Light"

 

“The TRUE Light”

 

In Him was life, and that life was the Light of ALL mankind.  The TRUE Light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.    John 1:4,9

 

I love this first chapter of the Gospel of John, because it gives us a CLEAR, CONCISE picture of WHO Jesus is, and WHY, He came to be the TRUE LIGHT of MANKIND.  Verse four tells us that JESUS was LIFE, and the LIFE was the LIGHT of ALL mankind.  He is the TRUE LIGHT that shines in the DARKNESS, and the DARKNESS has NOT OVERCOME it.  The DARKNESS of this WICKED WORLD, has NO POWER over the TRUE LIGHT of the LIVING GOD, who, is the LORD JESUS CHRIST.

 

In the first verse, it says: “In the BEGINNING was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  The Word, who is the LORD JESUS CHRIST, has ALWAYS been in a RELATIONSHIP with God, and is GOD in the FLESH, He did NOT just appear at some point of time to begin a relationship with God.  But He has ALWAYS been with the FATHER (God), in a LOVING relationship, they are ONE Entity, and in the BEGINNING was the SPIRIT of GOD, who is also a part of that ONE Entity.  God the FATHER, God the SON, and God the HOLY SPIRIT is the HOLY TRINITY.

 

The Word, JESUS, became FLESH and BLOOD, and He made His dwelling among mankind.  He is the LIGHT that gives LIGHT to EVERYONE.  And though He was in the WORLD, and this WORLD was made by Him, the WORLD did NOT RECOGNIZE Him, and some STILL DON’T RECOGNIZE Him, even His OWN people, nor did the WORLD RECEIVE Him.  And that is WHY this SIN-SICK WORLD is in the shape it is TODAY.  And why it is DOOMED for an ETERNITY in HELL.

 

BUT for those who HAVE BELIEVED and RECEIVED HIM as their SAVIOR and LORD, He has given the RIGHT to become TRUE CHILDREN of the LIVING GOD----Children NOT born of NATURAL DESCENT, nor of HUMAN DESCISION or a MAN’S WILL, but BORN OF GOD.  Children, who have an ETERNAL INHERITANCE, of spending ALL of ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS, and being ABLE to ESCAPE an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE after they are there. 

 

He came for YOU!   Have you RECEIVED HIM as your LIGHT in this DARK, FORBODING WORLD?  Or are you DESTINED for an ETERNITY in HELL?   It is YOUR CHOICE to make, either ACCEPT or REJECT God’s GLORIOUS GIFT of SALVATION.  In order to become a TRUE CHILD of the LIVING GOD, you MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  And CONFESS your sins to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS CHRIST, the Word, who is LIFE, and is the TRUE LIGHT, has DIED for YOU, and is NOW ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST RECEIVE God’s Gift of SALVATION, and the TRUE LIGHT, which DISPELS the DARKNESS of this WRETCHED, WICKED, DOOMED WORLD.   Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
