馬太福音 5:14
"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.
你們是世上的光。城造在山上是不能隱藏的。
馬太福音 5:15
- 16
Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
人點燈,不放在斗底下,是放在燈臺上,就照亮一家的人。
你們的光也當這樣照在人前,叫他們看見你們的好行為,便將榮耀歸給你們在天上的父。」
以弗所書 5:8
- 13
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light
(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)
and find out what pleases the Lord.
Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
But everything exposed by the light becomes visible-and everything that is illuminated becomes a light.
從前你們是暗昧的,但如今在主裡面是光明的,行事為人就當像光明的子女。
光明所結的果子就是一切良善、公義、,誠實。
總要察驗何為主所喜悅的事。
那暗昧無益的事,不要與人同行,倒要責備行這事的人;
因為他們暗中所行的,就是提起來也是可恥的。
凡事受了責備,就被光顯明出來,因為一切能顯明的就是光。
