Father instructed me.”
Reflections
“Whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness. ”Jesus Christ is the revelation of the Father. Jesus tells his disciples that if they receive him, they receive the Father. If they believe in his words, it is the Father’s words that they believe. Jesus always ties himself to the Father. His authority comes from the Father.Jesus further says he comes as light. He who believes in him does not remain in darkness. He comes to dispel the darkness enveloping the world as to who God is to them and what salvation is all about. Jesus reveals God to them who believe. Jesus is the one who can give light to the searching soul.Those who refuse to believe face judgment. It is a consequence of not believing in Jesus and God. The act of not believing is an out- right rejection of the mercy and compassion of God as presented by Jesus. It is their fault, not God, if they will not be among the lucky ones who go to heaven. For first of all, they have rejected themselves as God’s children. They have not shown their interest in Jesus. They have not taken advantage of his presence and efforts. They do not give time for him.
