[13 ] But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, [14 ] for anything that becomes visible is light.
What does it mean that everything that becomes visible is light????
Up to this point I see Paul encouraging the church not to joke about the deeds of darkness but rather to rebuke them. The idea of educating and reinforcing the conscience. Until the start of verse 14 that is.
I read somewhere that John Stott suggests that the idea is that those exposed to the light become light (converted). However the text seems a lot more mechanical in describing "anything" where I would expect a discussion of the elect?
Help in untying this knot much appreciated
