Jesus speaking: “You are the light of the world.” Matthew 5:14a
Jesus taught using parables and analogies, so that everyone could easily understand his message. The Bible says that Jesus is the bread of heaven, the living water, and the light of the world. But in a juxtaposition of the rhetoric, Jesus says that YOU are the light of the world!
Believers, those of us with Jesus in our hearts, are the arms, legs, hands and feet of the church. The light of Jesus shines through us. The Holy Spirit gives us the power to make this so.
Remember that Jesus left us with an agenda. We are to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus promised to be with us always, until the end of the age.
We are to let our light so shine before others, that they may see our good works, and glorify our Father which is in heaven.
That’s what the bible says.
