The light of the world.

Conclusion

The lamp in the tabernacle shone on the table of shew bread. It is Jesus, the bread of life, that we illuminate.

Matthew 5:14 "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Phil 2:14 Do all things without grumbling or questioning,15 that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,16 holding fast to the word of life.

Light is comforting, healing warming irresistible, hope, direction.

Don't get distracted with personal power issues, political issues, or cultural distractions. Preach the word. Hold forth the Word of life. Personal battles and power issues are disturbing. Don't focus on making our church look better. We are to preach Christ. Focus on the main thing. Jesus!!
