    Let Your Light Shine 12/13/09 PM Text: Matthew 5:14-16 INTRODUCTION There are many lessons in which we examine what is necessary to become a Christian, the Gospel of Jesus, the lessons of God’s grace and His salvation.

    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.

    Opening illustration: Robert Lewis Stevenson, peering out of the window saw a workman come by and light the gas lights along the street. 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

    Impacting Your World For Jesus Series

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 10, 2011
     | 12,075 views

    Jesus asks us to be both salt AND light to impact the world around us for him. We need to be both, not one or the other. It’s a challenge!

    Making Jesus better known to others will complicate your life, but the rewards are out of this world! Getting married, or having children complicates things; but they’re worth it. Spending time with people who don’t know Jesus will complicate your life, but it’s so worth it. Ask a mother a few ...read more

    Jesus’ metaphors of salt and light reveal how His followers are to be positive influences in the world.

    You’ve probably all heard the old adage “No man is an island.” Since that was the thought that first came to mind as I read the passage that we’ll look at this morning, this week I did some research to find out where that saying originated. It comes from Meditation XVII ...read more

    Why God’s Word Matters Series

    Contributed by Pat Damiani on Sep 13, 2011
     | 6,778 views

    Because God’s Word mattered to Jesus, it should matter to us and we should do everything we can to live according to the principles we find there.

    Over the years, I’ve found that one of the issues that Christ followers struggle with the most is how we are to apply the Old Testament in our lives. In fact, five years ago when I preached a series of messages based on questions submitted to me by all of you, that was the most common question that ...read more

    A Challenge to churches to be a church that changes the world by both salt and light.

    “A CHURCH TO CHANGE THE WORLD” By Jerry Falwell “Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

    We as Christians have to understand that blessings go responsibilities. Those in the kingdom have a responsibility to function as salt and light to the world. The purpose of discipleship is to bring stability, wholeness, and the knowledge of God to al

    Teaching about Salt and Light Mt 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it useful again?

    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!

    Matthew 5:14-16-“You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
