In the very first chapter of the Bible we find God separating light from darkness. After that, we see a pattern throughout Scripture where He identifies darkness as evil, and associates light with good things such as holiness and truth. When Jesus came, He referred to Himself as “the Light of the world.” Then in the Sermon on the Mount, He called us to shine brightly as well.
