“I am the light of the world”, and the testimony
나는 세상의 빛이니 하신 말씀과 증거에 관한 말씀
John 8:12–20: again Jesus speaks to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.” The Pharisees say to him, “You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.” Jesus answers them, “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don’t know where I came from, or where I am going. You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one. Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me. It’s also written in your law that the testimony of two people is valid. I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.” They say to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answers, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.” Jesus speaks these words in the treasury, as he teaches in the temple. Yet no one arrests him, because his hour has not yet come.
