    When we believe in Christ, the Light of the World, He delivers us from the darkness. The darkness is still there, and it’s still deadly, but it cannot overcome the light of the Lord.

    Say you’re out in the bush somewhere at nighttime. All around it’s very dark, just the murkiness of midnight, and you’re a bit scared. You’re glad you have your flashlight, and glad the moon is shining. And when you come to a hill, and you look out over the treetops, you’re even gladder when you ...read more

    You are the light of the world. As you live out this goodness visibly in front of the people of the world, your life will point them to Jesus where they too can find life that is real life.

When asked what he was watching, the young boy said, “I see a man making holes in the darkness.” Let us turn to Matthew 5 and see how we as believers can make ...read more

    Jesus uses two great illustrations of what the Christian is. 1-Salt-To prevent decay and corruption, to flavor to living, to bring healing. 2-Light-To dispense and disperse light to a dark world!
