          49 The ^alight shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehendeth it not; nevertheless, the day shall come when you shall ^bcomprehend even God, being quickened in him and by him.

          67 And if your eye be ^asingle to my ^bglory, your whole bodies shall be filled with light, and there shall be no darkness in you; and that body which is filled with light ^ccomprehendeth all things.
    94. D&C 123: 13
          13 Therefore, that we should waste and ^awear out our lives in bringing to light all the ^bhidden things of darkness, wherein we know them; and they are truly manifest from heaven—
    95. D&C 138: 30
          30 But behold, from among the righteous, he ^aorganized his forces and appointed ^bmessengers, ^cclothed with power and authority, and ^dcommissioned them to go forth and carry the light of the gospel to them that were in ^edarkness, even to ^fall the spirits of men; and thus was the gospel preached to the dead.
    96. Moses 2: 4-5, 18
          4 And I, God, saw the light; and that light was ^agood. And I, God, divided the ^blight from the darkness.
          5 And I, God, called the light Day; and the darkness, I called Night; and this I did by the ^aword of my power, and it was done as I ^bspake; and the evening and the morning were the first ^cday.

          18 And the ^asun to rule over the day, and the moon to rule over the night, and to divide the light from the ^bdarkness; and I, God, saw that all things which I had made were good;
    97. Abr. 4: 4-5, 17
          4 And they (the Gods) comprehended the light, for it was ^abright; and they divided the light, or caused it to be divided, from the darkness.
          5 And the Gods called the light Day, and the darkness they called Night. And it came to pass that from the evening until morning they called ^anight; and from the morning until the evening they called day; and this was the first, or the beginning, of that which they called day and night.

          17 And the Gods set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light upon the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to cause to divide the light from the ^adarkness.
    98. JS-M 1: 33
          33 And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the ^asun shall be ^bdarkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the ^cstars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
    99. JS-H 1: 20, 43
          20 He again forbade me to join with any of them; and many other things did he say unto me, which I cannot write at this time. When I came to myself again, I found myself ^alying on my back, looking up into heaven. When the light had departed, I had no strength; but soon recovering in some degree, I went home. And as I leaned up to the fireplace, ^bmother inquired what the matter was. I replied, “Never mind, all is well—I am well enough off.” I then said to my mother, “I have learned for myself that Presbyterianism is not true.” It seems as though the ^cadversary was aware, at a very early period of my life, that I was destined to prove a disturber and an annoyer of his kingdom; else why should the powers of darkness combine against me? Why the ^dopposition and persecution that arose against me, almost in my infancy?

          43 After this communication, I saw the light in the room begin to gather immediately around the person of him who had been speaking to me, and it continued to do so until the room was again left dark, except just around him; when, instantly I saw, as it were, a conduit open right up into heaven, and he ^aascended till he entirely disappeared, and the room was left as it had been before this heavenly light had made its appearance.
