³⁶ While you have the light, believe in the light, in order that you may become sons of light.” Jesus said these things, and then he went away and^[a] was hidden from them.

⁸ for you were formerly darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live like children of light

⁵ for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.

⁷ But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.
