The Christian person understands that these two views seem irreconcilable. At the same time he desires to share his faith. How can he do this? How can he awaken the seeker? (73:6) It was earlier pointed out that for a few souls, the light which Christ, who referred to Himself as the "Light of the World" , radiated, was enough to awaken them from slumber and to bestow upon them the gift of faith. That light, the source of everything good and holy, was the eternal joy and the very life of those who perceived it. Who among us would not desire to have humbly knelt - even for a moment - in His wondrous presence and to have bathed in that eternal light?
(73:7)
