“The Light Of The World”

“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid” (Matthew 5:14).
Text —Matthew 5:14-16
Message
Robert Lewis Stevenson, as a boy was looking through the window watching 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.” This scenario exemplifies how Christians should shine to radiate the dark communities around them.
In our text, Jesus Christ said, we are the light of the world because He is Light of the world (John 9:5). He came to shine the light into every life; and as you turn to Him to be your personal Saviour, He will shine the light of the Truth and the light of the gospel into your life. This world is in darkness because of the evil activities of the devil and sinners. As Christian youths, we are to radiate the light of God in our schools, campuses, workplaces and communities. We are to live uncompromising and shining Christian life everywhere. Abstain from all evil practices and let your life reflect Christ so that sinners will be drawn to Him.
