Light (1)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.

Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.

John 1:1-5 ESV

Just as darkness has not substance of its own, but is only the absence of light, so sin is not some created thing, but the absence of obedience. The disobedience of sin could not overcome the obedience of Christ. Such a magnificent picture John paints for us here.
