Title: Light of the
world
Light signifies the presence of life. Wherever there is light, there is life.
We may also appreciate light for its speed, which, at
186,000 M/S, is the limit in the universe.
Uniting these properties into a single influence and attributing it to the
Christian shows the remarkable position and scope of responsibility a believer has
been charged with in the struggle between good and evil, life and death,
particularly in the area of representing God and the love he offers through the
Lord Jesus.
The Christian message and testimony, by the influence of the
Holy Spirit, should be able to break and overcome the darkness prevailing in
the hearts of men, so those who are lost or groping about in ignorance may come
within the influence of a follower of the Lord Jesus, and see the reality of
sin and judgment, and the only way to the Father and redemption, the Son of his
love.
Without your light and mine, all is lost.
