John 12:35

While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.

You will also decree a thing, and it will be established to you. Light will shine on your ways.

For my people have forgotten me. They have burned incense to false gods. They have been made to stumble in their ways, in the ancient paths, to walk in byways, in a way not built up,

I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.

Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

“Arise, shine; for your light has come, and Yahweh’s glory has risen on you.

Remember the days of old. Consider the years of many generations. Ask your father, and he will show you; your elders, and they will tell you.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.

This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.

For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.

A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”

Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers;

Don’t withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, where you are going.

“Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.

If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

Indeed, he says, “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give you as a light to the nations, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.”

Therefore a prudent person keeps silent in such a time, for it is an evil time.

I said, “Please listen, you heads of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel: Isn’t it for you to know justice?

But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall.

The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.

Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.

You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.

to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.

(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);

But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and doesn’t know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

For you will light my lamp, Yahweh. My God will light up my darkness.

So teach us to count our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

But the path of the righteous is like the dawning light that shines more and more until the perfect day.

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw near, when you will say, “I have no pleasure in them;”

and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way. Walk in it.”

I will bring the blind by a way that they don’t know. I will lead them in paths that they don’t know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.

“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.

“But Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.’

In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and of the household of God,

His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, who, when he had by himself purified us of our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high,

If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

The testimony is this, that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.

Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was hidden, and went out of the temple, having gone through the middle of them, and so passed by.

Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.

But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’

I glorified you on the earth. I have accomplished the work which you have given me to do.

So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,

They don’t know, neither do they understand. They walk back and forth in darkness. All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

Yahweh says, “Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, ‘Where is the good way?’ and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’

Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Therefore their way will be to them as slippery places in the darkness. They will be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation,” says Yahweh.

Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don’t tell the truth.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

They gathered it morning by morning, everyone according to his eating. When the sun grew hot, it melted.

“These are of those who rebel against the light. They don’t know its ways, nor stay in its paths.

who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness,

The way of the wicked is like darkness. They don’t know what they stumble over.

Yes, if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that comes is vanity.

House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of Yahweh.

The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. The light has shined on those who lived in the land of the shadow of death.

We grope for the wall like the blind. Yes, we grope as those who have no eyes. We stumble at noon as if it were twilight. Among those who are strong, we are like dead men.

Give glory to Yahweh your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it deep darkness.

Then I said, “I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other’s flesh.”

Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can’t be that a prophet would perish outside of Jerusalem.’

He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

Jesus said therefore again to them, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can’t come.”

For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”

While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.

But their minds were hardened, for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains, because in Christ it passes away.

Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away and the true light already shines.

in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them.
