"For with You is the fountain of life; in your light shall we see light." (Psalm 36:9)
The life of Christ is the light of the world. "In Him was life; and the life was the light of men." (John 1:4) "Then spoke Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." (John 8:12) So when the Psalmist says, "in your light shall we see light," (Psalm 36:9) it is equivalent to saying that in the life of Christ we shall see light.
How many people are groping in darkness for light. Professed Christians stumble over hard things in the Bible, because they do not use the light that would make everything plain.
So, many people refuse to accept the life of Christ, because there are some things that they do not understand. It would be as reasonable for a man to refuse to take a lantern, because he cannot see anything in the dark.
When people take the life of Christ for their own, and understand that all the Scriptures are but the reflection of Christ, many difficult things in the Bible will be perfectly clear. It is much easier to find a thing when we look for it in the light, than when we grope in the dark for it.
He who accepts the life of Christ has the key to the whole Bible, for the life of the word is the life of Christ.--Present Truth, October 6, 1892--Psalm 36:9.
