Jesus is the Light of the World

Then he said to me, "This is the Lord's message to Zerubbabel: Not by an army, nor by might, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts. What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel, you are but a plain. (Zech 3:10)

Once again, we see that it is not by any human devices, however grand they may seem to be--however advanced the technology, but it is only by God's grace, God's grace given to his anointed ones, that is, the baptized followers of the Anointed One, that we are able to dispel the darkness, find the way and conquer evil, thus becoming saints, God's Humble Heroes. For, Jesus is the Way, and He is the Light of the World:

Lamp-like indeed, He alone dispelled the gloom of ignorance and the darkness of evil and became the way of salvation for all men. (Quaest. 63:PG 90 667-670)
