    Jesus called us lights in darkness. What does it mean and what do we need to do?

    Mat 5:14 You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Mat 5:15 Nor do men light a lamp and put it under the grain-measure, but on a lampstand. And it gives light to all who are in the house. Mat 5:16 Let your light so shine before men that they may see your ...read more
