Believers possess this.

Do Christians possess the light of life?

As it is written;

“I am the light of the world, no one who follows me shall ever walk in darkness because he will possess the light of life.”

It seems Christians don’t even know what it is.

There’s more but I expect you will try to poke holes in it so I’m not going into it further.
No; I never "poke joles" at scripture... Please go on. Do you have more scriptures?
Yes.

Jesus said all judgement has been given to the son but then says to judge righteously. This shows the son is not Jesus alone. He also said that those who follow Him would sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Again they must be the son. Jesus also gave the glory given to Him to His genuine followers and said they would be One as He and the Father are One making His followers equal to Him.

John 5

22 The Father judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son,

Matthew 19:28

28 Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man is seated on the throne of his glory, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel

John 17
22 The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one,
23 I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one,
so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

John 5

26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself;
27 and he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

So Jesus knew that the Son is the son of man and does the judging but still holds that His followers would judge the twelve tribes of Israel. Why? Because they are the son of man!

Thank you. And well done for seeing that Jesus associated his coming rule with others!

His coming rule?

Jesus the man is not coming back. The son of man is though.
