<p>Jesus came as the promised light to a world trapped in spiritual darkness. Matthew 4:12-17 shows how Christ fulfilled Isaiah's prophecy by bringing hope to Galilee, a region steeped in spiritual blindness and idolatry. Unlike other religions that offer moral codes, Christianity teaches that God Himself entered the world as light incarnate. Jesus began His ministry among the despised and downcast, calling them to repentance and offering the kingdom of heaven. His message wasn't just about being kind, but about turning from sin and self-reliance to trust in Him as Savior and King.</p>
