 And you know, without the light of Jesus Christ, even the things of the Bible remain dark. Even the things that are preached to you that you are now listening remain dark. The Bible talks about the ministry of Jesus. It says the light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. That's true as well of the Bible. People read the Bible. At a certain level, they understand it. But until they come to Christ in faith, it does not shine for them with the truth of God.
