Father, we don't have any greater need than for the light of life.

And so I ask that you would come and now make this service

and this message and instrument of life giving that we might see Christ as our light.

Embrace him, treasure him, enjoy him, walk in him forever.

I ask this in his name, Amen.

So when you come to the end of this text now,

versus 12 through 30 you see the response at least

one of them that Jesus got as he was saying these things many believed in him and that's really good news

because it says in verse 24, second half of the verse,

unless you believe that I am,

you will die in your sins. So here we have a picture at the end of this text of people moving from death to life. They're not going to die in their sins. That's wonderful

news. They're going to be forgiven.

Their sins won't be held against them because they're believing.

If they don't believe they die in their sins,

and if they do believe they don't die in their sins.

And if they do believe they don't die in their sins,

they die in righteousness, and they're saved,

and have eternal life.

So this is a beautiful thing we see here at the end of the text and my prayer is that

it disservice would end that way. I'm just going to try my best to let Jesus talk. It is remarkable, isn't it, that he's just talking, he's not doing any miracles here.

This faith... He's not doing any miracles here.
