LUMEN GENTIUM. Christ is the light of the world. He is the light that came down from heaven, to bring forth the light of divine wisdom to all men, and through that light, we should, as witnesses of his truth, spread our faith through all particular means. In this world divided and darkened by sin, it is our solemn duty as Christians, to once again carry the torch of light and together, through this light that gives wisdom and freedom, let us prepare the way of the Lord.
