"When the sun is shining in all its beauty, who are the ones that are unconscious of the fact? Who need to be told it is shining? The blind! How tragic, then, when we read that God sent John to 'bear witness of the light.' How pathetic that there should be any need for this! How solemn the statement that men have to be told 'the light' is now in their midst. What a revelation of man's fallen condition."
