Where it all Began

Chapter 105:THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

The light of the world is the world of the lights and the lights will light up the world with the revelation of the light. The light of the world is the spoken Word of God that echoes from eternity to time as the reflection of God’s thought (life), of which out of the abundance of His heart, His mouth spoke.

Genesis 1: 3

Then God said, “Let there be light”, and there was light.

“…There was light”?

This explains that the light has been and that does not mean the light was created at the instance of God saying, “Let there be…” and this is because the light was His very life reflected and this life was reflected to release the key of the kingdom and that key comes in bunches that must be rightly used. What do I mean by, “that key comes in bunches”? I mean, the key comes as keys and the keys are spoken words that must be by the ordained Word of God, which is the perfect key.

What is this light?

John 8: 12

Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life.

With the understanding of who the light is there will no longer be any darkness at all, God said it and it was done, pointing to the fact that the wisdom of God states that, “God’s command is reality.”

The light of life is the wisdom of God in men to be able to answer beyond the limit of Peter’s confusion, the question “Who do men say Jesus is?” because the testimony of John is trying to paint an identity that followed the children of Israel as a rock, the very rock of protection, the tabernacle of perfect rest, the stone the builders rejected, the very cornerstone, confessed by Peter as the Son of the living God and this was when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask Him, “Who are you?” (John 1: 19) and he confessed and never deny who he was, he said, “I am not the Christ”, but they proceed to ask him further, “What then are you?” Are you Elijah?” and he said, “I am not” he answered them. They didn’t stop there, they further asked him, “Are you the prophet?” he answered, “NO” and then they said to him, “Who are you, that we may answer those who sent us?”

We are confronted with the question of our identity in this world and this question is a question of our faith in God that defines our stand in the reality of things. The question of our faith is what will bring about the true light and there will no longer be darkness at all (Revelation 21:23) and Jesus being whom He is that we don’t even know for sure, asked His disciple the question, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” (Matthew 16: 13), they said, “Some say, you are John the Baptist” but remember, John said, “He is not the Christ”, so, how would the Christ be John the Baptist? They said, “Some say, you are Elijah and others says, “You are Jeremiah or one of the prophets”. Can you see that the problem of the revelation of Jesus’ true identity did not begin today? It has been, but we all have a question to answer personally and that question is, “Who do you say that Jesus is?” Jesus is the eternal Word of God that became flesh (John 1: 14), which means He is the same God as He is the Eternal Word and that was why all things were made through Him because He stepped into a dimension of creating things ad that was why there was nothing made that was made without Him (John 1: 1- 3) which means He is the substance of reality and the substance of things hoped for, but evidence not seen (Hebrews 11:2), is what defines faith. Jesus Christ is our true faith not any ideology of man and in Him was life and this life was the light of men (John 1: 4). The light of men is what defines the true testimony of Jesus of Christ, which is the Spirit of Isaiah’s prophesy in Isaiah 9:6 that men can never comprehend (John 1: 5).

Jesus is the light of the world and by our relationship with Him, we became sons in His beloved (John 1: 12), representing the light that He is to reveal the very wisdom that the world needs to catch the full revelation of God, so as not to dwell in the ignorance of what men think of Him.

THE TRUE LIGHT

If there is something true, it invariably calls our attention that there is also something that is acting to be true and anything that is acting to be that is not, is not true, which implies, what looks like the truth that does not portray the true nature of good is never true. In this regard, the devil would always want to act true to us to deceive us and when we are deceived, he will drag us into a point of no return, trading the path of evil, which is a way that seems right (Proverbs 16: 25).

A man sent from God is not God, but a Son given is not a man sent but gives as a gift and if that gift is for a wage and the wages is sin, it then implies, that gift must be from God and nothing can cancel that wages of sin, except God Himself and that, was why He repented and was made sin, not made to sin or sinned in any way.

How did God repent?

Genesis 6:6

And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth and He was grieved in His heart.

The sin of man dragged God into what I call human emotions and this emotion is what I defined as THE PASSION OF THE LORD, having created everything and saw that they were indeed very good (Genesis 1: 31), but, something was introduced, do you know what that is? It is simply the desire of man, which was without light. Scripture has it that, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.” (Genesis 2: 7), but look at what happened…

Genesis 2: 18

And the LORD God said, “It is not good that man should be alone, I will make him a helper comparable to him.”

…NOT GOOD? God said, “He will make him a helper”, it means the woman was deliberated created to meet desperation and that was why God said, “Helpmeet”, it means, the desperation as desired was met as help to man and since the woman was created to meet the desire of man for man, not to meet God’s desire, but all things created for the pleasure of God as a man for God’s glory and that is why the woman was taking out of from man and the complexity in this reality, only God can resolve, because a being was created from man to live apart from a man with man.

My point is, the true light is not an object, it is not the sun or the moon, or the stars, it is simply the desire of God, not of men and that desire of God is the WAY that ports man into a dimension of true understanding, not the ways. He is the TRUTH, not as in a statement of fact, but a person, not the lies that they told of that He is. He is the LIFE driven by love, not the life driven by lusts, therefore, it is the desire of men that has dragged men into what is not of God, far away from the true light and make men not to discover the true light, because of their inordinate lusts that do not delight in anything good, which is from the LORD of life.

How can you live life if you don’t delight yourself in the LORD of life?

Living a true life is the desire of Believers of God in Christ Jesus, but desires are not met in a vacuum but are met in the container of a delight, which must be in the LORD and that is why, scripture has that, “If we delight ourselves in the LORD, He will grant us the desires of our hearts”.

The man was dragged away from the true light because of his desire, he retired from that which is right and now, he has to fight the true fight of faith to stay and remain in the light that will enable him to stay on course in order not to step into the cursed domain, therefore, all that man need is the light and that light is the wisdom of God that is profitable to direct.

The wisdom of God drags into the business venture of the spirit, where your adventure is to continually overcome flesh to be able to grab fully the spiritually inexhaustible packages in this age and the age to come as the pages of the age flips off to a new millennium where eternity is turned on as Eon and forever will be ever and evermore.

If men are not practising or living by the truth of God’s Word in our time, it then implies the wisdom men profess is not of God, even when it thus has a form of godliness, it can never connect one to the dimension of holiness where God can be seen and that is why we cannot live at peace with each other because love is not made perfect in us, even when we profess it, fear is the drive of our mentality, breeding insecurity that creates a condition of perpetual panic.

The wisdom of God will not deny the true identity of Jesus Christ, even when he came to this world putting on the garment in the form of a man in mortal flesh, what men could not see is a virtue (LOVE) that acts as a vessel driven by the vehicle of humanity in the form of humanity wherein His full content of grace and truth is poured (John 1: 14).

We are all witness of the LIGHT, the very TRUE LIGHT (John 1: 9) who is the eye of reality, I mean, the current impulse of divinity driven with life and light, whom the world did not recognize and have not still recognized, even in this dispensation of God’s grace (John 1: 10). It is so unfortunate that those who have Him as heritage are rejecting Him by accepting what looks like Him, so He had made a public offer for all (anyone) to enjoy His life without restriction and the condition is simply HIS GRACE that can only be accessed by the ABC of divinity in the face of humanity, which is first, ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the gift of His very life, secondly BELIEVING in the knowledge of the person (the very truth that will set men free (John 8: 32)) and thirdly, RECEIVING the gift of His life and that is why He is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE. Therefore, for real, the ABC of divinity are A = WAY, B = TRUTH, C = LIFE, explained as our assurance of faith in the WAY (ancient path), which is the good way that we must walk in it to ensure our BELIEF in God is the TRUTH and the truth is a person of Christ on which our confession rest to establish a foundation of our faith that there is no any other foundation apart from, which is Christ the rock of our salvation, by this I mean, there is no salvation without Jesus Christ who is the rock of our salvation. Are you saved? Our confession must be the life of God and that confession is the light (spirit) of our testimony, which is Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ is the Almighty God, our Everlasting Father and if you have a problem with this, I have no apology at all. With the base of our belief as to the Son of the living God, we must know that base defines an ordered system with a sequence ranging from the origin to a point, 1 less than the base, which implies, the base is not what should be seen at the end, but the current signal. Let me explain this, using number system, as in base 10 has the sequence, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 without 10, which, if Son of the Living God is the base defined as our foundation of faith, it becomes an office that admits men walked with God after the fall, men who were faithful and became friends of God, men who were obedient to the course of God, men who have passion for God and could even kill to protect the heritage of God like Moses, who didn’t at that time had the full understanding of who God is, men chosen by God and deliberately love for His namesake like Jacob, who became Israel, men, chosen by God to preserve His people in the time of famine, like Joseph, men who came the mouth piece of God to confront evil like prophet Samuel, men after God’s own heart like David who was a man after God’s heart not because he did not sin, but because he knows how to please God even in his short coming, his mind was made up to build a temple for the LORD that points to the true church, men who took over from men like David and had the temple built, which in reality, is not a temple built with stone, but men as the temple where God would now come to reside..The point is, if the sequence, began with men, it points to the flesh but must end not with men, but with God in the spirit, which explains a form of advancement that advances us in knowledge to fully reach the dimension that carnality will give way for spirituality and this means, what we know as Son of God is an office we are admitted into as sons of God (John 1: 12) to carry out heaven’s mandate called the Great Commission, which is a mission to reach out to souls and this is our spiritual act of service to the LORD God almighty.

It is too small a thing to be called a servant of God, we are not a servant. Was the prodigal son servant to his father? NO! Even at his error, he was still a son and was received back as a son even when what he desired after he had sold his thought to now start thinking, he may only be accepted as a servant, so he went and tried his luck, but he didn’t understand at all his father’s love. Therefore, we are not servants of God; we are sons of the living God. I reiterate it is too small a thing to be called a servant of God (Isaiah 49: 6), the weightier matter is that we are sons and this is because He gave Himself to us as the light of the world, for us to give ourselves to the world as the light that will shine out of darkness to lead people out of the way of condemnation. We are the occupants of God’s office till He comes to be as He is, the instruments of the salvation of souls to the ends of the earth.
