Believers, We ARE Jesus Christ’s LIGHT

Matthew 5:14-16

THEN, HE (Jesus Christ) Opened His Mouth, AND TAUGHT Them, SAYING: “YOU (Believers) ARE THE LIGHT OF The World! A City, That IS SET ON A Hill, Can NOT 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! LET YOUR LIGHT (As Jesus Christ’s LIGHT), SO SHINE, BEFORE Men, THAT They MAY SEE, YOUR GOOD WORKS (GOD Almighty’s Good Works Performed, THROUGH Us), AND GLORIFY YOUR FATHER (GOD Almighty), IN Heaven!”

Mark 4:21-23

Also, HE (Jesus Christ) SAID TO Them, “IS A Lamp BROUGHT, TO BE PUT, UNDER A Basket, OR UNDER A Bed? IS IT NOT, TO BE SET, ON A Lampstand?

FOR THERE IS NOTHING HIDDEN, WHICH WILL NOT, BE REVEALED; NOR HAS ANYTHING, BEEN KEPT SECRET; BUT, THAT IT, SHOULD COME TO LIGHT! IF ANYONE (Believers), Has Ears TO HEAR, Let Him HEAR!”

Luke 8:16-18a

AND HE (Jesus Christ) SAID, “NO ONE, When He Has LIT A Lamp, COVERS IT, WITH A Vessel, OR PUTS IT, UNDER A Bed; BUT, SETS IT, ON A Lampstand; That Those Who ENTER, MAY SEE THE LIGHT!

FOR NOTHING IS SECRET, THAT WILL NOT, BE REVEALED; NOR ANYTHING HIDDEN, THAT WILL NOT, BE KNOWN, AND COME TO LIGHT! Therefore, TAKE HEED, HOW YOU (Believers) HEAR!”

John 8:12

THEN, Jesus SPOKE TO Them, AGAIN, SAYING, “I AM THE LIGHT OF The World! He (Believers) WHO FOLLOWS ME, Shall NOT Walk, IN Darkness; BUT, HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE (Everlasting Life)!”

Acts 13:47

“FOR, SO THE LORD (Jesus Christ), HAS COMMANDED Us (Believers): ‘I HAVE SET YOU, AS A LIGHT (Jesus Christ’s LIGHT), TO The Gentiles (Non-Jewish Believers); THAT YOU SHOULD BE, FOR SALVATION, TO THE ENDS OF The Earth!’”

2 Corinthians 4:6

FOR IT IS, THE GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO COMMANDED LIGHT, TO SHINE, OUT Of Darkness; WHO HAS SHONE, IN Our Hearts (Believers’ Hearts), TO GIVE, THE LIGHT OF THE KNOWLEDGE, OF THE GLORY OF GOD (GOD Almighty), IN THE FACE OF JESUS CHRIST!

Ephesians 5:8-10

FOR YOU (Believers) Were Once, Darkness; BUT NOW, YOU ARE LIGHT, IN THE LORD (Jesus Christ)! WALK, AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT (FOR, THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT, IS IN, All Goodness, Righteousness, AND TRUTH), FINDING OUT, WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE, TO THE LORD (Jesus Christ)!

Philippians 2:13-16a

FOR, IT IS GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO WORKS, IN YOU (Believers); BOTH, TO WILL AND TO DO, FOR HIS (GOD Almighty’s) GOOD PLEASURE! DO All Things, WITHOUT Complaining AND Disputing; THAT YOU MAY BECOME, Blameless AND Harmless, CHILDREN OF GOD (GOD Almighty), WITHOUT FAULT; IN The Midst, OF A Crooked AND Perverse Generation; Among Whom, YOU (Believers) SHINE, AS LIGHTS (Jesus Christ’s LIGHT), IN The World; HOLDING FAST, THE WORD OF LIFE (The Gospel Of Jesus Christ)!

Colossians 1:9-12

FOR THIS REASON, We (Believers) ALSO, SINCE THE DAY, We HEARD IT (The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), DO NOT CEASE, TO PRAY FOR YOU (Believers); AND TO ASK, THAT YOU (Believers) MAY BE FILLED, WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIS (GOD Almighty’s) WILL, IN All Wisdom AND Spiritual UNDERSTANDING; THAT YOU MAY WALK, WORTHY OF THE LORD (Jesus Christ); FULLY PLEASING HIM; BEING FRUITFUL, IN EVERY GOOD WORK (GOD Almighty’s Good Works Performed, THROUGH Us); AND INCREASING, IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD (GOD Almighty); STRENGTHENED, WITH ALL MIGHT, ACCORDING TO HIS (GOD Almighty’s) GLORIOUS POWER; For All Patience AND Longsuffering, WITH JOY; GIVING THANKS, TO THE FATHER (GOD Almighty), WHO HAS QUALIFIED Us (Believers), TO BE PARTAKERS, OF THE INHERITANCE OF The Saints (Believers), IN THE LIGHT (The Kingdom Of GOD Almighty)!

Romans 1:16-17

“FOR, I (Believers) AM NOT ASHAMED, OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST; FOR IT IS, THE POWER OF GOD (GOD Almighty), TO SALVATION; FOR EVERYONE (Believers), WHO BELIEVES; FOR The Jew (Jewish Believers), First; AND ALSO, FOR The Greek (Non-Jewish Believers)! FOR IN IT, THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD (GOD Almighty), IS REVEALED, FROM FAITH TO FAITH; AS IT IS WRITTEN, “THE JUST (Believers) SHALL LIVE, BY FAITH!”

Romans 10:15b

AS IT IS WRITTEN: “How Beautiful ARE The Feet OF Those (Believers), WHO PREACH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, WHO BRING GLAD TIDINGS OF GOOD THINGS!”

Ephesians 1:13-14

IN HIM (Jesus Christ), YOU (Believers) ALSO TRUSTED, AFTER YOU HEARD THE WORD OF TRUTH, THE GOSPEL OF YOUR SALVATION; IN WHOM, ALSO, HAVING BELIEVED; YOU WERE SEALED, WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF PROMISE; WHO IS THE GUARANTEE, OF OUR (Believers) INHERITANCE (The Kingdom Of GOD Almighty); UNTIL THE REDEMPTION, OF THE PURCHASED POSSESSION (Believers, AT The Being Caught Up Together); TO THE PRAISE OF HIS GLORY (Jesus Christ’s Glory)!

1 Thessalonians 2:4

BUT, AS We (Believers) HAVE BEEN APPROVED, BY GOD (GOD Almighty), TO BE ENTRUSTED, WITH THE GOSPEL (The Gospel Of Jesus Christ); EVEN SO, We (Believers) SPEAK, NOT AS Pleasing Men; BUT GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO TESTS Our Hearts (Believers’ Hearts)!

Acts 5:29

BUT, Peter AND The OTHER Apostles (Jesus’ Disciples) Answered And Said: “We (Believers) OUGHT TO OBEY GOD (GOD Almighty), Rather Than Men (Mankind)!”

Fellow Believers, We ARE Jesus Christ’s LIGHT, Upon THIS World (Satan’s World); Right HERE, Right NOW, TODAY!

The Question For Each Of Us, IS; What Are We Going TO DO About It?

THE ANSWER: Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ, WITH EVERYONE, Who Has Ears TO HEAR AND Eyes TO SEE, THE TRUTH (The Holy Bible, And Specifically, The Gospel OF Jesus Christ); WHICH IS, The Most Important Message, We CAN SHARE, WITH Another Human Being, PERIOD!

1 Corinthians 2:13

THESE THINGS (Spiritual Things), We (Believers) Also, SPEAK; NOT IN Words, Which Man’s Wisdom Teaches (THROUGH Satan); BUT Which, The Holy Spirit TEACHES (Us, Believers), COMPARING SPIRITUAL THINGS, WITH SPIRITUAL (THINGS)!

2 Corinthians 4:13

And Since, We (Believers) Have THE SAME SPIRIT OF FAITH (The Holy Spirit), According TO What IS Written, “I BELIEVED, And Therefore, I SPEAK,” We (Believers) Also, BELIEVE, And Therefore, SPEAK!

1 John 2:27

BUT, THE ANOINTING (Of The Holy Spirit), Which YOU (Believers) Have RECEIVED, FROM HIM (Jesus Christ), ABIDES IN YOU; AND YOU Do NOT Need, That ANYONE, TEACH YOU; BUT, AS THE SAME ANOINTING (Of The Holy Spirit), TEACHES YOU, Concerning All Things (Spiritual Things); AND IS TRUE (From GOD Almighty); AND IS NOT A LIE (Of Satan); AND Just As IT (The Holy Spirit), HAS TAUGHT YOU, YOU (Believers) WILL, ABIDE IN HIM (Jesus Christ)!

So, How Are We (Believers), GOING TO DO THIS?

BY READING GOD Almighty’s WORD, The Holy Bible; We Learn, BY HIS WORDS, We READ; BUT ALSO, By What GOD Almighty, REVEALS TO Us, IN Our Hearts, AS We Read, These Same Words!

Also, By Communing, THROUGH Prayer, WITH GOD Almighty; PRAISING HIM (GOD Almighty), FOR EVERYTHING, HE DOES, FOR Us; AND FOR EVERYTHING, HE DOES, THROUGH Us (GOD Almighty’s Good Works Performed, THROUGH Us)!

By Asking, FOR Forgiveness, FOR The Sins, We Have Committed, AGAINST HIM; KNOWING; BY HIS GRACE (GOD Almighty’s Amazing Saving GRACE), HE WILL, NOT ONLY, FORGIVE Our Sins; BUT ALSO, FORGET Our Sins!

AND By Being, Living Examples, OF How We (Believers, As Jesus Christ’s LIGHT), Should All, Strive TO LIVE!

Acts 10:18

NOW, WHERE THERE IS, REMISSION (Cleansing) Of These (Sins); THERE IS, NO Longer, An Offering, For Sin (The Old Covenant)!

Romans 4:4-8

“BLESSED, ARE THOSE (Believers), Whose Lawless Deeds, ARE FORGIVEN (By GOD Almighty); AND Whose Sins, ARE COVERED (By Jesus Christ); BLESSED, IS THE Man (Believers), TO Whom, THE LORD (GOD Almighty), Shall NOT Impute (NOT Pass Judgment, On His) Sin!”

AND By Most Importantly, Asking GOD Almighty; What Can We (Believers), DO FOR HIM?

Folks, I KNOW, We (Believers) Will All, Continue TO Sin; BUT, We Can Strive TO BE; AS Sin-free, AS Humanly Possible!

SO, WHAT IS THIS MESSAGE?

Romans 10:8-10, 13

BUT, WHAT DOES IT SAY (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ)? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN Your Mouth AND IN Your Heart” (THAT IS, THE WORD OF FAITH, Which We Preach): THAT IF, YOU CONFESS, WITH Your Mouth, THE LORD JESUS, AND BELIEVE, IN Your Heart, THAT GOD (GOD Almighty), HAS RAISED HIM (Jesus, ALIVE), From The Dead (i.e. YOU Believe, IN Jesus’ Crucifixion, Resurrection, AND Subsequent, Ascension), YOU WILL BE SAVED (FROM The Lake Of Fire, The Second Death, EVERLASTING CONDEMNATION)!

FOR WITH The Heart (Believers’ Hearts), ONE BELIEVES, UNTO Righteousness, AND WITH The Mouth, CONFESSION (OF THIS FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ) IS Made, UNTO Salvation!

FOR “WHOEVER (Believers) CALLS, ON THE NAME OF THE LORD (Jesus Christ), SHALL BE SAVED (AND WILL HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE, IN GOD Almighty’s Immediate Presence, WITH Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, AND All The Rest Of The Children Of GOD Almighty, FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER)!” AMEN.
