JESUS IS THE LIGHT HOUSE OF THE WORLD:
Jesus suffered all things to pay the price so we do not have
to go through them. I had a Seminary teacher once who tried to explain the
Atonement. He held up a flashlight and said this represents the Light within
us. This toothpick represents our sins. He held up the flashlight in front of
the toothpick and it cast quite a big shadow. Then he turned on an overhead
projector and said this represents the Savior’s light. If you take that same
sin or toothpick and put it in front of a more powerful light such as an
overhead projector, the rays of light are so great that it bends around the
toothpick and thus no longer casts a shadow. So it is with Christ’s light which
increased with the Atonement as to overshadow the sins and cares of the entire population of all mankind. Thus Faith
in our Savior is incredibly important to attaining our Salvation and Eternal
Increase. Thus Jesus is the LIGHT and LIFE of this World.
