Jesus
Is The Light Of The World
By
The
Twelve Apostles
Jesus The Light Of The
World
Jesus was
teaching in the temple, when the Scribes and the Pharisees brought the case of
Mary Magdalene. After the Scribes and the Pharisees had left, Jesus continued
His teachings, which was interrupted.
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the
light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have
the light of life.” The Pharisees then
said to him, “You are bearing witness to yourself; your testimony is not
true.” Jesus answered, “Even if I do
bear witness to myself, my testimony is true, for I know whence I have come and
whither I am going, but you do not know whence I come or whither I am
going. You judge according to the flesh,
but I judge no one, because I have come to save the lost sheep. Myself is the Lord and Saviour. Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is
true. In your law it is written that the
testimony of two men is true; I bear witness to myself, and as the Holy Trinity
I also witness to myself.” They said to
Him therefore, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor
the Holy Trinity; if you knew me, you would know God
Almighty also.” These words He spoke in
the treasury, as He taught in the temple; but no one arrested Him. John 8:12-20
