In GOD We Live....

Ref: John 1: 8-13 Purpose of the light John was not the light but sent to testify about the light (the Word) v9 the True light which will enlighten everyone. The purpose of the light is to enlighten and that was what he was coming into the world to do. His rejection v. 10 unfortunately the world did not recognise the presence of the light or benefit from his presence or purpose. v11 even his own did not recognise him or receive him. His acceptance v12-13 those who receuve him and believe, he gave power/right to become the children of God. another benefit is that these people get enlightened, they shine, they become relevant, cannot be ignored also because the function of light is also overcome darkness and it cannot overcome them.

He was at the beginning and nothing was made without Him. ...Nothing was made that has been made without Him (the Word) In Him was Life. This implies that without Him there is no life. It is His light that gives light to men. We are in darkness without light. Same way we live in darkness until we have the Word in our lives. It is the Word that gives light to our lives. When the light (the Word) shines in our lives, darkness cannot overcome it! Ref: John 1:2-5
