1 John 1:5
"This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all."
The statement "God is light" in this verse is more than just seeing with our eyes—He is the Light that enables us to understand. He is "light" in who He is...and those who have faith in the Lord become like Him...open, honest, nothing hidden...light!
When Jesus said in Matthew 5:19, "You are the light of the world," He meant we would shine our light of honesty into a dark world to show the way into His glorious light.
The Truth
“God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen.” (1Timothy 6:15-16)
