Sensible humans seek the topmost, ultimate being as the recipient of their prayers and their worship—and this requires a real being of creatorship, and ultimate authority as the one true God. Jesus Christ came, sent by the Father, to testify that the Father is this very being, this one true God. Jesus died for you to bring you to this one true God. Jesus is your light, to illuminate with the truth. His death on the cross is to deal with your wrongdoing, so that it need not separate you from God, and then forever you can live in fellowship with him and with the Father. But this fellowship has an essential requirement. This requirement is that you believe he is the light sent from God, and that you hold to his light-giving teachings. We can also all have fellowship with each other, if we meet these requirements, by the power of his name. We then all become like a Bride for him, the Bridegroom, as we become a many-person, many-faceted people all given eternal life in him. Such a marvellous mystery.
