- It's the Gospel message (v4) that brings light - like the 1st day of creation, when God spoke a word of command and brought light into the world. Only this light is the light of conversion, of repentance & faith in Jesus Christ, who is the image of God.
- It's an experience of knowing the God of glory (v6) - who because of his glorious grace, sent his glorious Son, to die an in-glorious death for in-glorious rebels - like us!
That's a treasure worth having. No wonder a person who once was blind (v3-4) & who has his eyes opened by the light of Jesus Christ is described as a "New Creation," (2.Cor.5v17)!
Christians are rich... and all the world is poor.
