- Man can act like a monkey, but it won’t change the fact that he is Man
- Believers = sons of light
- Believers who walk in Light, can do dark things (sins), but it won’t change the fact that they are sons of light
- We can’t say that when believers sin, they change from “walking in light” to “walking in darkness”
John 8:12
New King James Version (NKJV)
12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
- “shall not” in the Greek = ‘ou me’ – never, certainly not => Double Negative
1 John 1:6
New King James Version (NKJV)
6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
1 John 1:7
New King James Version (NKJV)
7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
- If we say “walking in light” means “doing no sin”, what “the Blood of Jesus Christ” doing on the above verse?
- If we sin while walking in light, the Blood of Jesus Christ His Son will cleanse us ( this shows the love of Jesus by cleansing us, thus Goodness of God leads us to repentance )
1 Thessalonians 5:5
New King James Version (NKJV)
5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
Hebrews 9:12
New International Version (NIV)
12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption.
- Eternal means you wont loose it once you receive it
- Its mentioned as “Everlasting” in Amplified Version (Everlasting means Everlasting) (Hebrews 9:12)
- Everlasting righteousness ( Daniel 9:24 )
Daniel 9:24
King James Version (KJV)
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
John 3:16
New King James Version (NKJV)
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
- The word ‘everlasting’ is the Greek word ‘ionios‘
- The same word ‘ionios’ used of God’s eternal being
- The same word ‘ionios’ used for our Redemption (our Redemption is eternal )
