Mosiah 16:9 "He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless that can never be darkened; yea and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death."
The verses before this one talk about the fall and the Savior's victory over sin and death.
It made me realize that Jesus' title 'The Light and Life of the World' isn't just some pretty words, it's a literal reference to what he has overcome. He is the light of the world because He freed us from spiritual death and He is the life of the world because He saved us from temporal death.
I just thought that was neat, I never noticed it before.
