In the Gospel of Thomas, Jesus says we came from the Light.

The following can be found in the Gospel of Thomas.

(50) Jesus said, "If they say to you, 'Where did you come from?', say to them, 'We came
from the light, the place where the light came into being on its own accord and
established itself and became manifest through their image.' If they say to you, 'Is it
you?', say, 'We are its children, we are the elect of the living father.' If they ask you,
'What is the sign of your father in you?', say to them, 'It is movement and repose.'"

Before I started reading the words of Jesus, I've always believed in my heart that we came from the Light, which itself was made manifest of its own will, in harmonious accordance with the infinite.


Whether you believe in Christ or not, I advise you to read his words with an open mind and an open heart. I personally have found most if not all quotes attributed to him to contain the absolute Truth.



On a side note, it is interesting to point out that the greatest source of Light in the known universe comes from Stars.

The true kingdom of Light is God's kingdom, the Devil when he rebelled was cast out after no place was found in heaven for him as he is no longer of the light - that is the light of God the devils false light is another matter.

Jesus is the TRUE LIGHT, true light FROM true light, True God from True God.

He came into our world and is the light of the world but the world did not know him, even so he shines to the people in darkness, he is shining his light of truth to us and calling us home.

But he pointed out that the evil men love the darkness more than the light, the hide there evil in the darkness (lies and spiritual darkness) and do not come into the light for they will be exposed.

We are all condemned for we have all fallen short of God's law but Jesus grace and mercy have paid for us to be redeemed with his own blood, we have to let go of our own inner darkness and be filled with the light of his truth.

Our burden of shame for our sin's is nothing compared to the burden of our sin's on the back of an innocent man who died for us.

The burden he gives us is light his innocence and lack of sin covers our shame with his blood and washes us clean justifying us, his wounds take the place of the punishment we so truly deserve and through him alone, by the grace of God alone we are saved, not by our own work's but by his sacrifice in our place.


God created the stars, he created the light itself and there is more than one kind of light, the light of truth and God's mercy and the love of God are the most beautiful form's of light, if we learn to see by them we will see the world far better than we do now, some day he will remove the scaled from our eye's that we may truly see.

Light and movement go hand in hand when you understand the following.

Rotation is a common form of movement in our universe. As an object rotates faster and faster it eventually gets hot enough to give off light.

Whether or not our creation has starting point, or everything has always existed, light and motion are defining attributes of it.

The material essential for life is manufactured in stars - distributed when they supernova.

So yeah, Life comes from light
