About This Message
Preaching from John 1, Pastor Addison presents two responses to Jesus, the "True Light": rejecting him, as the Pharisees and much of the world do, or receiving him and becoming a child of God. Using stories of skeptics like Leo Tolstoy and Malcolm Muggeridge who were eventually drawn by glimpses of light in their darkness, he urges listeners to choose to believe fully rather than straddle both positions.
Key Takeaways
- Every person receives some light from God, through creation or conscience.
- Some reject the True Light, as the Pharisees rejected Jesus.
- Believing fully in Jesus brings the power to become God's children.
