“And God said,
Let there be light: and there was light”
Genesis 1:3
(continued from the booklet)
Light
This same light, by God’s design, would come into this world (once again formless and void because of the fall of Adam) in the face of the God-man from whom would shine the very radiance of God the Father. This same light which shone out of the darkness in creation came to us in the face of Jesus Christ to shine the brightness of God’s glory into our hearts.
“For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”
2 Corinthians 4:6
The Eternal Word, wrapped in human flesh, would walk among us, dwell among us, and reveal unto us the nature and heart of God the Father.
“In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.”
John 1:1
This Word is the very incarnation of God Himself, by Whom He was pleased to unveil Himself to fallen man. God making known to man that light is not merely for revelation and illumination; it is purposed to enter into our very beings, in the person of Jesus Christ, whereby His very Life becomes “the light of men.”
“In Him was life;
and the life was the light of men”
John 1:4
In the receiving of Him into our hearts, His very Life becomes our light to live, walk and grow into His likeness.
“The entering of Your Word gives light…”
Psalm 119:130 (LITV)
It is best to read this short excerpt as a continuation of the introduction article: Light – Part One
“Christ came not to talk about a beautiful light, but to be that light — not to speculate about virtue, but to be virtue.”
— H. G. Taylor.
In God’s world, Light is the Life of the Son, and they who have Him, hold Him and follow Him have eternal life.
“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.”
1 John 5:11-12

Candle Dream Revisited
I had the following night vision in September of last year.
Imagine being in a room full of people in total darkness . Should one light a candle that person could now see the people in the room who were in darkness but those in darkness could also see the person holding the lit candle.
With that said I will tell of a night vision I had 09/01/2022. I saw a large group of people holding candles which were lighting the darkness. Those holding the lit candles represent believers. Reiterating what I said above that those holding the candles were able to see but also be seen.
Then I saw persecution, darkness, happening. I then saw believers begin to willfully blow out their candles so that they would not be persecuted and thus become part of the darkness their light once exposed.
The Lord said these are the cowardly and unbelieving who will be cast into the lake of fire for eternity.
Those who had previously had lit candles began to persecute the remnant holding the lit candles because the light of those who held onto their candles, despite being persecuted, was exposing not only the darkness but those who joined the darkness by extinguishing the flame of their candle.
The cost will be great to hold onto the light.
While up in the early morning hours of Saturday I had the following word from the Lord to add to this night vision.
Those churches who do not stand with Israel but with terrorists bent on Israel’s destruction are no different than those who blew out their candles in the aforementioned dream. This is not a time to be silent.
The warning Mordecai gave Esther is relevant for believers today.
Esther 4:14 (NKJV) 14 For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this
