Jesus, the True Light, the Resurrection and the Life

John 5:26, 21 [1]

²⁶ For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.

²¹ For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it.

Happy Easter! Jesus is the True Light (John 1:9) because in Him is the life that is the light of all mankind (John 1:4, John 5:26). Having the experiential relationship with the Father and the Son is eternal life (John 17:3, Section II in [2], [3], 1 John 5:11, 20b, 1 John 1:2).

Jesus is the resurrection and the life (John 11:25, John 14:6c). Jesus has life in Himself (John 5:26, John 1:4) and gives life to whom he is pleased to give it (John 5:21, 1 Corinthians 15:45).

• Jesus raised Himself (John 10:17, 18), Lazarus (John 11:1-43), the widow’s son (Luke 7:15), and the daughter of Jairus (Mark 5:42).
• Jesus raises the (spiritually) dead who hear His voice (John 5:25, Section II in [4]).
• Jesus will raise everyone on the day of Judgement (John 5:28-29).
• Jesus is the bread of life (John 6:35, 48).
• Jesus is the author of life (Acts 3:15).
