What does it mean to be a child of light?

Answered in 1 source

Being a child of light means being spiritually awakened and living in accordance with God's truth.

As Paul states in 1 Thessalonians 5:5, 'For you are all children of light and children of the day; we are not of the night nor of the darkness.' This metaphor of light signifies that believers are granted understanding and truth through Christ. It implies a calling to reject darkness, which represents sin and ignorance, and to embody the light of Christ in our daily lives. The remnant that God has called out joins in lifting their voices in praise and spreading the message of salvation, demonstrating the transformation that comes from being in Christ.
