Matthew 5:16

The Sermon On The Mount: Salt And Light

¹⁵ A city that is situated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do they light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light to all that are in the house. ¹⁶ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. ¹⁷ Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets: I am not come to destroy but to fulfill.
