Christian leaders who bear the name, also bear the responsibility for assuring they are walking with Jesus. This is how we lead others to the Light.
Those who walk in darkness are walking corpses. They are spiritually dead because they reject the influence of Light in their lives. Without the Light that is Jesus, the Word, there is no life.
Truth can only be understood in the Light of the Father and Son. They bear witness to the reality that is God’s kingdom, revealed by the Father and the Son alike. Without this Light there is spiritual blindness and confusion.
To receive the Light is to receive life, and to escape the darkness of death.
