Connection with the creation
Paul says the God who spoke light into the first darkness of creation has now shone in our hearts with the light of the knowledge of Christ (2 Corinthians 4:6). On the last page, the city needs no sun or moon, because the glory of God gives it light. The light of day one and the light of the new creation are the same light, and His name is Jesus.
