What does the Bible say about the creation of light?

In Genesis 1, we see God's creative act where He says, 'Let there be light.' This moment not only shows God’s sovereignty in creation but also introduces the concept of light, symbolizing purity and truth. Light, as described in the sermon, has no darkness in it, revealing the reality of existence as created by God. Its initial creation demonstrates God's authority and ability to bring order out of chaos, emphasizing that all things were made through His Word, which is later identified as Jesus Christ in John 1.
