Matthew 5:14
Ye are the light of the world. The business of the church
is not only to save, but to enlighten. Christ is light, and his
disciples must be light.
A city that is set on an hill. Anciently cities, for the
sake of defense, were placed on hills. Such cities are seen from
afar. So must the church give forth its light.
