While ye have light, believe on the light that ye may be the children of light." These things spake Jesus, and departed, and hid himself from them.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which suffer persecution for righteousness sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall falsely say all manner of evil sayings against you for my sake. Rejoice, and be glad: for great is your reward in heaven: For so persecuted they the prophets which were before your days.

Ye are the light of the world.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in heaven.

Be ye followers of God as dear children, and walk in love even as Christ loved us, and gave himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice of a sweet savour to God. So that fornication, and all uncleanness or covetousness, be not once named among you, as it becometh saints: read more.
neither filthiness, neither foolish talking, neither jestings, which are not comely: but rather giving of thanks. For this ye know, that no whoremonger, either unclean person, or covetous person, which is the worshipper of images, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ, and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words. For through such things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of unbelief. Be not, therefore, companions with them. Ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.
