1 John 1:5
This then is the message which we have heard of him. The message
heard from Christ, now declared, is that
God is light. The source whence all light, whether it be physical,
or moral, or spiritual, comes; the Enlightener of the universe. The
term denotes luminous clearness, the free and benevolent source from
whence flow light, intelligence, purity and blessing, absolutely free
from alien intermixture, since
in him there is no darkness at all. Light represents truth,
knowledge and holiness. Darkness represents ignorance, error, falsehood
and sin.
