In John 8:12, Jesus said, "I am . Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Christ brings Gods presence, protection and guidance into our lives. Is He the Light of your world? What does following the light of Christ mean? As he stood in the temple where offerings were collected and where candles burned to symbolize the pillar of fire that led Israelites through the desert, Christ called himself the "light of the world" In Luke 12:10, Christ again referred to light, and discussed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. We read in Luke 11:34, "Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body is also fall of light But when (your eyes) are bad, your body is also full of darkness.
Q: What is the unforgivable sin? -- B., via e-mail A: There are many sins recounted in the Hebrew Bible but none are ever called unforgivable sins. Sometimes the punishment for sinning is death, but repentance is always possible before punishment. In the Christian Scriptures, there are three verses that take up the subject of unforgivable sin. In the Book of Matthew (12: 31- 32), we read, "Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven men, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven. And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age, or in the age to come.

Os Hillman, in one of his meditations, writes about how peace can be a weapon. An attitude of peace can show "confidence in the God of "Peace" who declares that by responding in peace, we are not falling for the lies of "Satan. Of all the "Fruit of the Spirit," is the toughest to gain. Why? Because as Jesus said to the rich young ruler, "there is none good but God" (Mark 10:18). Paul tells us, "For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consist in all , righteousness and truth)" Ephesians (5:810). This Christmas and Kwanzaa, my hope is that we see as a direct result of inner peace and that when is surrounded by peace and self-control, we become righteous and blameless people. Wh...
