Things Unseen with Sinclair B. Ferguson · Following the Light of the World · 22 Sep 2026 podcast

It just so happens that they've meant a lot to me in particular. voice-verified

Yesterday I mentioned the first words that seemed to leap off the pages of the Bible to me, John five, thirty-nine to forty. voice-verified

Today it's another verse from John's Gospel. voice-verified

It was the text of the sermon to which I look back as marking the point of my coming to faith in Christ. voice-verified

The verse is John chapter eight, verse twelve. voice-verified

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world. voice-verified

Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. voice-verified

As it happens, the sermon was preached in the same church in which I was ordained to the ministry of the gospel some eight and a half years later on. voice-verified

But that's another text I'm going to mention later in the week. voice-verified

I'd been what our forefathers would have called awakened, but not yet converted. voice-verified

I hadn't been seeking after Christ, but now I was. voice-verified

And, as those same forefathers would have said, I'd come under conviction of sin. voice-verified

The details don't concern us here, but in essence what happened was this. voice-verified

I knew I wasn't perfect, and we all do, don't we? voice-verified

And I knew that I did specific things that were wrong and failed in various ways. voice-verified

And yet I was doing my best, and doing my best to keep the commandments from my youth up, as the rich young ruler said. voice-verified

I think I could put it like this. voice-verified

I knew I sinned sometimes, but I didn't think of myself as a sinner. voice-verified

I shared the natural man or woman's view of themselves, assuming that the divine report card probably read something like this basically more or less satisfactory, but could try harder and do better. voice-verified

But now I was discovering not just that I did sinful things, but that I was a sinner. voice-verified
