“I Am the Light of the World” | John 8:12 | Sermon on Jesus and the Light of Life

In a world where truth is under attack and darkness seems to grow thicker each day, Jesus boldly declares: “I am the Light of the World. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12).

In this sermon, we explore the profound context and meaning of Jesus’ claim during the Feast of Tabernacles—where massive lamps lit up Jerusalem in celebration of God’s past faithfulness. Jesus steps into this light-filled moment and reveals that He is the true and eternal Light—not just for Israel, but for the whole world.

We’ll trace this theme from Genesis to Revelation, connecting creation’s first light to the light of Christ, and discover how Jesus fulfills the prophetic promises of Isaiah to bring light to the nations. This isn’t just theology—it’s transformation. When you follow Jesus, you become light in the world.
