In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. John 1:4
John’s Gospel covers much the same ground as the other three Gospels, but emphasizes the meaning of what took place. The keynote point of John’s Gospel is love and the divine glory of Christ. He portrays Jesus as an unquenchable light shining, into the darkness.
The story of Jesus does not begin with His human birth. John refers to Jesus as “The Word” the very breath of God and when God spoke, life came into existence. Jesus, the living Word of God became man. He became life to share with us and in us.
Light is life itself. Light, not darkness, creates our habitat. Light sustains our existence. Life and light are one in the same, the essence of and the gift of Jesus. Bask in the Sonshine!
