The Contrast of Light and Darkness

"I am the light of the world and as the light of the world I choose to expose the 'world to the world'. To bring into focus that which is of Me and that which is of evil. Praise Me for My word and the expose' of that which is evil within the world.

This exposition is an exposure by contrast and the contrast is between the beauty of a diamond and how it reflects and refracts light, as against the darkness of coal. The diamond well cut and polished is for mounting, especially in the crown of victory, but coal is for burning. Burning of the defeated, the self-destructed, the dispossessed, who are not disposed to see the light of the world and the revelation of the truth."

The use of diamond and coal is appropriate as both are a form of carbon. Scientifically, life on earth is known as 'carbon life'. The word organic relates to living things having a carbon basis. When this contrast is used in the context of this message it conveys a solemn warning. We would do well, therefore, to recognise those things in the world that are being exposed by the contrast of light and darkness.
