“And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the Light from the darkness.” [Genesis 1:3-4]
“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is Light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:” [I John 1:5-6]
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.” [Isaiah 60:1-2]
“Now in Genesis, the 1st chapter, "The Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." We realize that the water... And--and the Bible said, "In the beginning back there," that, this, "the world was without form, and was void." There was nothing but just a darkness of chaos. And--and what a horrible shape it must have been in. Nothing but way into the darkness yonder, without Light or anything, and the churning of the water, and that wandering star twisted around and around the orbits out there somewhere. It must have been a--a terrific mass of--of--of something lost, like it was, couldn't find its way. And that's what we become when we become wandering stars, away from God, just without hope, without God; without, just churning around, out in darkness, not knowing when we... where we're going. And God took that great chaos of darkness, and transformed it into a garden of Eden, see, by His Word. That's how we're transformed, by God's Word. When God said, "Let there be Light," and that mass of creation out there come over in around the sun, and begin to revolve around the sun, and became a garden of Eden because it obeyed the Word of God. It done the perfect will of God, for it was transformed from chaos, into a garden of Eden, by the Word of God.” [65-1031M Power Of Transformation, Prescott AZ]
“Now, today, if God has made a promise, and when that promise is vindicated, then that is Light. That's the Light of the day, when the Word is a vindicated, the Word for the hour is a vindicated. Then, God was going to have a--a earth that He was going to grow vegetation, and He'd have people upon the earth, and then He spoke and separated the waters from the sea. Then, also, He separated, in Genesis, life from death. Now, if we believe the Word of God, It is the Word of Life to us; but if we question the Word of God, It's death to us. For, God has spoken, who can deny It? See? And if we question the Word of God, then It becomes death.” [64-0121 God's Word Calls For A Total Separation From Unbelief, Phoenix AZ]
“Isaiah 60:1 says, "Arise, and shine, for the Light is come to you." Rise, and shine, the Light has come. The Word, Light, is vindicated again. The Light vindicated again, God's Word, so that you can see God manifested in His promise of the Light of the day, or the Word given to this age, see, these promises that's made for this day, these promises that was said by the prophets, and by Jesus Himself. In this day! "God, in sundry times..." Hebrews 1, "God, in sundry time, in divers manners spake to their fathers through the prophets, but in this last day through His Son, Jesus Christ."” [64-0112 Shalom, Sierra Vista AZ]
“There stood Judas, Light shining up here, but back in his heart was dark seed. When the showdown come, the darkness showed. Here was a little, old woman, all blacked out, up here in front, but down here was a predestinated seed. And when the Light come, It scattered the darkness, and it showed forth. "We know Messiah is coming, and, when He does, He will show us these things." Jesus said, "I am He." But Judas doubted It, yet supposed to be walking in the Light. See, the Light up here doesn't matter; it's the Light down here that counts. The Light up here will walk and fellowship, and everything else; but when the real power of God comes in, it can't come back to this dead seed, it'll reflect off in a denomination. But when It's back down here, a genuine, predestinated seed, when that Light comes down here, shows all the darkness away from you, and puts you in fellowship with Christ. He was the One Who gave you Life before the foundation of the world, otherwise you'll never see It, what God said.” [64-0119 Shalom, Phoenix AZ]
“The sun is the king of all Lights on this earth, in the natural Lights. No matter how much artificial Light that we can have, and how many great electric rays we can produce; when that sun rises, all the rest of them dim out. That's the same thing it is with the Word of God. When the Word of God rises, all superstitions, denominational fanaticisms and things, spread away, and it shows it just exactly what it is. God, in the beginning, said, "Let there be Light." The Light only comes, the true Light, the king Light, comes by the Word of God. God separated the Light from the darkness, in the beginning. And the Word of God, made manifest, always separates the Light from the darkness. People can rise up with this, that, or the other; isms can rise, communism, facism, and all other isms can rise; superstitions, cults, whatever it might be, might rise. But when that king Light of the Bible raises up, all superstitions and things... But, you see, we know it's there, but until It's a vindicated, proves Its Light; then we have no right to argue against That, because It shuts all other Light out. Jesus said, "Let every man's word be a lie, and Mine be the Truth." His Word is superior over all man's words, over all, anything. His Word is Light.” [64-0125 Turn On The Light, Phoenix AZ]
“People thinking that they're walking in the Light, the traditions of the fathers, and, the first thing you know, they're walking in a glare of a Light, not the same Light, rejected the very Light that they claim to be worshiping. His works thoroughly vindicated Who He was. Jesus said, Himself, "Search the Scriptures, for in Them you think you have Eternal Life, and They are They that testify of Me. Who can condemn Me of sin?" He said, "Who can prove that I have said anything, or any claim that I have made, that the Heavenly Father hasn't vindicated that through Me?" Has proved to you that He was the Light of the hour, because it was all prophesied that this Messiah should be this way, and here it bloomed to Life, but their traditions had separated them from the real Light of the Word.” [64-0125 Turn On The Light, Phoenix AZ]
“He is the Light, the Truth; the Light, and there is no darkness in Him. And He scatters the darkness when He comes in, because He is the Word. The Word is the Light. That's right. Because, He spoke and said, "Let there be Light," that was the Word that become Light. When He speaks This, it's the Light of that age, each time. Now He is here, in--in not in a glare; but people are living in a glare. But He is the vindicated Word. He is absolutely the--the Light in the time of darkness. Yes, Sir. All these false glares and things will fade away. Yes, Sir. He is here. Don't fear. Turn on the Lights, His promised Word. It lives. It makes... "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do, ye do also." Then, it is the Word. "As the Father sent Me, so send I you." The Father that sent Him, come in Him. The Jesus that sends you, comes in you. And the works that He did then, He does the same thing, because (why?) the Word is made flesh, in human flesh, manifests Itself as the Light of the day. There we are. There it is. It just is showing the way to Light, in the Light. Wise man, who are not blinded by creeds and denomination, will walk in that Light. Oh, my!” [63-1229M There Is A Man Here That Can Turn On The Light, Jeffersonville IN]
“And the first Light was ever given in the earth was God's spoken Word. The first Light that ever struck the earth was God's spoken Word. He said, "Let there be Light," and there was Light. That turned darkness into Light, in order to bring forth a creation of joy and life upon the earth. Then, the Spirit of God, as It moved with love and compassion, at that great day, the first day of the dawn of creation upon the earth; the sun rose and swept across, its rays, and dried up the waters from the earth, and made an atmosphere above. And, for its first time, it was to bring joy and life to the earth, by a seed. That was a great hour. But, oh, it wasn't nothing, that sunrise, like the sunrise on that Easter morning. This time, with the sun leaping into the skies, it brought forth a greater sunrise than ever; because it came greater news with this sunrise, than it did with the sunrise at the beginning. This sunrise brought a news, that, "He is risen! He is quickened from the dead, as He's promised. He's risen from the dead."” [65-0418M It Is The Rising Of The Sun, Jeffersonville IN]
“Now when the earth that... God was going to use the earth, and it was in total darkness. The Spirit of God spoke out, and said, "Let there be Light," and He separated the Light from the darkness. And It's been doing that ever since, separating Light from darkness. God's Word also separated the water from the land, in the beginning. God spoke, and the water was separated from the land. So, that, He had a--a reason for that. God never speaks a Word unless He's got a reason for speaking that word. He is not like you and I, that we just... or especially myself, that speaks so many foolish things. God speaks every word with a meaning, and something that He is trying to achieve, and will achieve by His Word. And It will perform exactly what He said It will do.” [64-0121 God's Word Calls For A Total Separation From Unbelief, Phoenix AZ]
