Luke 11:33

No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.

God wants us as believers to show what is good, kind, and loving to the world.  Without our witness to the lost and us, the darkness of evil would prevail on the earth.  We speak a message of hope to the lost so that the word of God will save those who don’t know Jesus.  Our job is to keep the darkness at bay and be a light.
