The Downside of Time

According to I John 2:8 we are on the downside of time, "darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining."

There was never a darker day than when Jesus was crucified on Mt. Morriah. Evil reigned and Satan struck the heal of the seed of the woman (Jesus). Darkness has existed with powerful results from the beginning of time, but 3 days after Jesus was placed in the grave light began to shine as He came forth ALIVE! That light is shining in the world today and soon the word darkness will not even exist in our vocabulary. We are on the downside of time! Jesus is coming back soon and He will regin and rule as King of Kings. Yes, there is a short period of time when Satan will be unleashed again, but then He will be cast into the lake of fire to be tortured day and night forever!

1. We need to be reflectors of THE LIGHT.

2. We need to help “whosoever” find THE LIGHT.

3. We need to promote THE LIGHT in every message, lesson, or conversation we engage in.

People who are still in darkness are blind and do not know where they are going. They are hopeless and lonely and in need of some LIGHT to shine in their darkness. I John 2:11

"He came to tell people the truth about the Light so that through him all people could hear about the Light and believe. John was not the Light, but he came to tell people the truth about the Light. The true Light that gives light to all was coming into the world!" John 1:7-9
