Jesus christ(the light of the world)
"I am the Light of the world" (John 8:12) is the second of seven "I AM" announcements of Jesus, recorded just in John's gospel, that point to His one of a kind awesome character and reason.
In pronouncing Himself to be the Light of the world, Jesus was asserting that He is the restrictive wellspring of otherworldly light. No other wellspring of profound truth is accessible to humanity.

There are two sorts of light on the planet. We can see one, or both, or not one or the other! When we are naturally introduced to this world, we see physical light, and by it we learn of our Creator's handicraft in the things we see. In any case, in spite of the fact that that light is great, there is another Light, a Light so essential that the Son of God needed to come with a specific end goal to both announce and grant it to men. John 8:12 records, "When Jesus talked again to the general population, He stated, 'I am the Light of the World. Whoever tails me will never stroll in dimness however have the light of life.'" The purposeful anecdote utilized by the Lord in this verse talks about the light of His Truth, the light of His Word, the light of interminable Life. The individuals who see the genuine Light will never stroll in profound obscurity.
We bring a flame into a space to disperse the haziness. In like manner, the Light of Jesus Christ must be taken into the dimness of wrongdoing that inundates the hearts and lives of the individuals who are not tailing Him. That is the condition behind having this Light—we tail Him. In the event that we don't tail Him, we won't have this light, this fact, this endless life.
Physical light is essential for physical life. The earth would surely change quickly if there were not any more any daylight. A woods loaded with trees with thick shelters of foliage high above has next to no vegetation on the ground aside from greenery or lichen, which needs little daylight. Plants will never move far from the light—they are said to be decidedly phototropic, attracted to the light. Similarly, profound light is vital for otherworldly life, and this can be a decent trial of our remaining in Christ.
The devotee will constantly incline toward profound things; he will constantly incline toward association, petition, the Word of God, et cetera. The unbeliever dependably does the inverse (John 1:5; 3:19– 20) since light uncovered his abhorrence, and he despises the light. In fact, no man can come into the genuine otherworldly light of Jesus Christ, unless he is empowered (John 6:37).
Following Jesus is the state of two guarantees in John 8:12. To start with, His adherents will never stroll in obscurity, which is a reference to the confirmation of salvation we appreciate.
As evident devotees of the Light, we will never take after the methods for wrongdoing, never live in a condition of ceaselessly erring (1 John 1:5– 7). Or maybe, we atone of our wrongdoing with a specific end goal to remain nearby to the Light of the world. The second guarantee is that we will mirror the Light of Life.
Similarly as He came as the Light of the world, He charges us to be "lights," as well. In Matthew 5:14– 16 we see adherents portrayed as the light of the world. Similarly as the moon has no light of its own, mirroring the light of the sun, so are devotees to mirror the Light of Christ with the goal that all can see it in us.
The Light is obvious to others by the great deeds we do in confidence and through the energy of the Holy Spirit.
The accentuation here is keeping up a tenable and clear observer on the planet, a witness that shows us to be loyal, God-regarding, dependable, genuine, sincere, and legitimate in all that we do. Likewise, we ought to dependably be prepared to give a record of the expectation that we have (1 Peter 3:15), for the gospel Light we have isn't to be secured, yet influenced evident for all to see to and advantage from, that they, as well, may leave the haziness and come into the Light.
