Based on John 1:4; John 8:12; and Matthew 5:14–16.

John wrote in His gospel about Jesus: “In him there was life, and that life was a light for the people of the world.”¹

Jesus told the people, “I am the light of the world. Those who follow Me will have the light of life.”²

Jesus also told His disciples, “You are the light of the world. People don’t light a lamp and then set it under the table; instead they put it on a stand so it can give light to everyone in the room. You should let your light shine in ways that others can see the good things you do and glorify your heavenly Father.”³
