John 1:1-14
The world sits in darkness, unsure of what’s true and what’s right and what’s good. Sources of truth have multiplied exponentially since the recent proliferation of information sharing technologies. This only serves to complicate things. Wrong is called right. Truth is called lies. And everyone claims to have the same access and authority to say what’s right and true. My truth is mine and yours is yours, and that’s fine, as long as yours doesn’t infringe on mine. Our world tells us there is nothing concrete, nothing objective that sits behind any of our own competing interpretations of reality. And so, in a world that sits in darkness, how can we know what is good, what is right, what is true? The answer is that light reveals truth. It shows things for what they truly are. And that light is Jesus. In the midst of overwhelming darkness, Jesus is the Light of the World!
