AR 796 - the Light

AR 796
. . . the origin of spiritual light is from the Lord . . .
and no others can accept that light, nor receive it,
but they who are conjoined with the Lord;
and conjunction with the Lord is effected solely
by the acknowledgment and worship of Him,
and at the same time
by a life according to His commandments from the Word.
