Matthew 5:16

The Sermon On The Mount: Salt And Light

¹⁵ neither do men light a lamp and place it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it gives light to all that are in the house. ¹⁶ In this way let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. ¹⁷ Think not that I have come to make the law or the prophets of no effect. I have not come to make them of no effect, but to give them their full efficiency.
