N.T.#730 “Who is Your Light?”
Feb. 6, 2026
John 8-Part 4
LET IT GLOW
They turned a deaf ear to what Jesus had said, yet He spoke to the Pharisees again. (Verse 12)
Matthew Henry had this to say about verse 12:
- Light is the name of the Messiah, as in Daniel 2:22.
- God is light, and Christ is the image of the invisible God.
- He was expected to be a light to the Gentiles and Israel. (Luke 2:32)
- As a traveler follows the light in a dark night. Christ is the light we believers follow. We submit ourselves to Hus guidance, take directions from Him, in the way that leads to happiness.
- False light (teachers) leads to destruction.
- It’s not enough to look at this light, and to gaze upon it. We must follow it, believe in it, and walk in it, for it (His Word) is a light to our feet.
- When we have the Light of Life(Jesus), then we have knowledge and enjoyment of God, the Light of spiritual life here and everlasting life in heaven.
Do you have this Light-Jesus?
LET IT GROW
The Pharisees argued with Jesus about Him saying truth. Jesus is the one and only source of truth since He and God are One.
Evidently the Pharisees who did not believe Jesus is the Messiah and Savior are it in heaven withHim today. (Verse 21) The Pharisees died in their sun of unbelief.
Jesus told them He was not of this world. Those Jews were spiritually blind and deaf. Jesus made it clear who He is. (John5:36-37). Yet the religious leaders would not believe in Him.
LET IT GO
Do you believe Jesus is God’s Son, the Light of the World, the Truth, and the Light of Life?
