JOHN 1:9, C. H. Cayce “That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.”
The true Light refers to Jesus. Verse four says, “In Him was life; and the life was the light of men.” He gives life in giving light. The word “world” in Scripture does not always refer to this material universe, nor to all the race of mankind. The ungodly world is spoken of. Hence, the term “world” sometimes embraces the ungodly only.
“And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.”— Luke 2:1. Here the word “world” embraces the Roman Empire. It evidently does not embrace all the race of mankind.
This is enough to show that the term does not always refer to the whole race of Adam. So He does not give light to every man that comes into the material universe, but to every one who comes into the spiritual world, or spiritual realm.
“My kingdom is not of this world,” says Jesus. Then it must be of another world. It is a spiritual kingdom, and pertains to the spiritual realm. Jesus lights every one that “cometh into’‘ this spiritual world or realm. The Primitive Baptist, April 11, 1911.
