Luke 11:33-36

The last day of 2018. Time to us is significant…not so with GOD. Where we spend eternity is of the utmost importance  to him and our time here and what we believe determines that eternity. Faith and adhering the WORD OF GOD  to our lives… now that shines in a world of darkness. Let my light so shine before men that others are drawn to YOU!

Praise and glory to Him who loved us enough to die in our place!

Reflecting the light and darkness imagery of the previous passage, Jesus’ remarks here highlight the importance of sincere obedience over religious pretense. Faithlifie Bible.

A person who concentrates on what is good (God’s teaching) is healthy. But a person who focuses on what is bad (the false teaching of the world) is full of darkness.

A person can become like light, a living picture of what God’s Word teaches, by concentrating on the light of the truth. NKJ Bible.

Luke 11:33–36 (NKJV)
33 No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. 34 The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. 35 Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. 36 If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”

Matthew 5:15 (NKJV)

15 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.
