    What did Jesus mean He is the light of the world? Well, before we look at the question, let's look at why He stated it. Jesus was teaching His disciples and others in the temple on the Sabbath. The service was rudely interrupted by the Scribes and Pharis

    Oh yeah, we see said the blind men. John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

    Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.
