John 1:10 – He was in the world, and the world was made by him,…..
This is a passage (John 1:10) many have interpreted incorrectly by asserting that it indicates Jesus as being the creator of the world. First, that is not what it says; and second, the context of this section begins in verse 6 (John 1:6) and it starts by telling us, “There came a man who was sent by God.” This lets us know that in this passage of John 1:10 the “He” and “Him” is in reference to God (John 1:1-5), not Christ.
John also tells us that God is the light (1Jn 1:5), “the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.” John 1:9 (KJV)
In other words, God is light means that God is the source and measure of all that is true. Another way to put it would be that nothing is truly understood until it is understood in the light of God. What is the main value of light? Negatively, it helps you avoid danger. Positively, it helps you reach what you are after.
“This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1 John 1:5-7 (KJV)”
God was in the world in many ways (Rom 1:19-20), including through His Son Jesus (Acts 2:22), though most of the world did not recognize him. He came unto his own by sending Jesus Christ to them (John 3:34), but even then many did not receive God, in that they rejected His emissary (John 12:49-50).
