One of such descriptions is Jesus\u2019 description as \u201cthe Light of the World\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In the New Testament, we read: \u201cThere was a man sent from God whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe.<\/p>\n<p>He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world.\u201d (John 1:6-9)<\/p>\n<p>We also read: \u201cWhen Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, \u2018I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.\u2019\u201d (John 8:12)<\/p>\n<p>We further read: I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness. (John 12:46) In addition, we read: \u201cNow you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and boast in God; if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark.\u201d (Romans 2:17- 19)<\/p>\n<p>But, what is meant by Jesus\u2019 description as \u201cthe light of the world\u201d? Is this description a literal or metaphorical one? First of all, there is no doubt that God alone is the only literal light of the world. He is the true source and giver of light to His creatures including Jesus himself. This is well-established in the New Testament itself and sometimes cited as quotations for Jesus and his disciples.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-faith.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Who-is-Jesus-according-to-Jesus.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to Download the book.<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Source:<\/span><\/strong> <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.muslim-library.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.muslim-library.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Visit this site to know more about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.islamforchristians.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Islam and Christianity.<\/a><a href='https:\/\/www.the-faith.com\/who-is-jesus-according-to-jesus\/' target='_blank'>Soucre Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a matter of fact, numerous beliefs are held about Jesus, the truth about whom is considered one of the most controversial topics among the followers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18333,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5798,2404],"tags":[11154,10257,11155,11156,11157,11158,11159,11160,11161],"class_list":["post-18331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-prophets-and-messengers","category-the-faith","tag-holy-spirit-in-christianity","tag-the-man","tag-what-languages-did-jesus-speak","tag-who-is-holy-spirit","tag-who-is-jesus-according-to-jesus","tag-who-is-jesus-according-to-the-bible","tag-who-is-jesus-explanation","tag-who-is-jesus-to-the-world","tag-who-was-jesus"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Who-is-Jesus-according-to-Jesus.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18331","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18331"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18331\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/18333"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18331"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18331"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/imuslim.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18331"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
