GOD'S FIRST COMMANDMENT WAS GEN 1:3, "LET THERE BE LIGHT..." JOHN 1:1, "IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD." JOHN CONTINUES IN CHAPTER 3:19-21, "THE BASIS OF JUDGEMENT (INDICTMENT, THE TEST BY WHICH MEN ARE JUDGED, THE GROUNDS FOR THE SENTENCE) LIES IN THIS: THE LIGHT HAS COME INTO THE WORLD, AND PEOPLE HAVE LOVED THE DARKNESS RATHER THAN AND MORE THAN THE LIGHT, FOR THEIR WORDS (DEEDS) WERE EVIL. FOR EVERY WRONGDOER HATES (LOATHES AND DETESTS) THE LIGHT, AND WILL NOT COME OUT INTO THE LIGHT BUT SHRINKS FROM IT, LEST HIS WORKS (HIS DEEDS, HIS ACTIVITIES, HIS CONDUCT) BE EXPOSED AND REPROVED. BUT HE WHO PRACTICES TRUTH (WHO DOES WHAT IS RIGHT) COMES OUT INTO THE LIGHT; SO THAT HIS WORKS MAY BE PLAINLY SHOWN TO BE WROUGHT IN GOD" (DIVINELY PROMPTED, IN DEPENDENCE UPON HIM). THE PSALMIST WROTE IN PS. 119:130, "THE ENTRANCE OF THY WORDS GIVETH LIGHT." READ (I JOHN 2:5-12). GO BACK TO REV. CHAPTER 2, NOTICE VS. 7, "WHAT THE SPIRIT SAITH," THE LETTERS MUST BE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED AND (SPIRITUAL) HEARING BRINGS FORTH FAITH. THE NATURAL HEARING (LAW) MUST BE OVERCOME (READ II COR. 3:5-11). WE ARE NO MORE PARTAKERS OF DEATH BUT ARE EATING FROM THE "TREE OF LIFE."
