The Light of Life

“he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life”

Jesus is the light of the world. Light represents truth. Darkness represents a lie. The Pharisees were not walking in truth. The truth was right in front of them, but they could not see nor hear the truth because they were trusting in themselves and their own righteousness. Paul, the apostle, dealt with these people, and this is what he said about them.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
