Bible Verses About Light

Verses on light — Jesus as the light of the world, and His call for believers to shine as lights in the darkness.

I am the light of the world — he who follows me will not walk in darkness. These verses on light illuminate a central theme of Scripture: the conflict between darkness and light, and the decisive victory of light. Arise, shine, for your light has come. You are the light of the world — a city set on a hill cannot be hidden. The LORD is my light and my salvation. Whatever darkness you face — personal, relational, or global — the Light has entered it and cannot be overcome.
