LIGHT John 12:35-36

Then Jesus said, "You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going. Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light." When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.

You are going to have the light just a little while longer
John 12:46 "I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness."

Walk while you have the light
Ephesians 5:8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light ...

before darkness overtakes you
1 John 1:6 If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.
1 John 2:11 But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded him.

Put your trust in the light while you have it, so that you may become sons of light
Luke 16:8 "The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light."
1 Thessalonians 5:4-5 But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness.
Acts 26:17b-18 "I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me."

When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them
John 8:59 At this they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.
