Dear Rocky Perry Amen!

GOD does NOT make undercover secret Christian that do not magnify ThyWORD of Thy whole name. Only way I can be a light is if I set a mans heart on fire for Christ. He might become saved by faith right then or he might be red fiery hot mad at me but he might later on become a fire for my Lord Jesus Christ. May GOD allow me to be in the number that sets the world on fire with the gospel that saves 1Chorinthians15:1-4. Amen. The Truth is the ISSUE !!

We are supposed to be examples of Christ, and letting the Light shine through us,because people are watching our actions in our everyday living.

This is as long as you get the holy ghost we have to tell the word following signs and wonders, and not to be quite while others r getting lost

Good verse, if a city is built on a hill, that means everyone can see it. As a child of God, we are always being watched by everyone. We must follow Jesus steps.

I think it 's hidden code for the church not to get caught cheating, lying, or stealing from the sheep.

Omotunde Samuel's comment on 2014-09-25 17:52:46:

As the light, you are expected to show the best example ever for others to see and imitate with enthusiasm. Then,you 're glorifying the One God that have sent you to this world. Praise the Lord

This is my anchor scripture. God bless his word that can and will never lie, Amen!

How about adding a couple of buttons that permit me to navigate to verse 5:13 and/or 5:15?

Tsering's comment on 2012-09-15 05:19:13:

Love this verse. It has lots of hidden messages for me. Good people in general - good parent, good teacher, good employee, good church, good school, anything that is positive and has goodness or value of purity and genuine is godly and won't go un noticed. Therefore, never worry about negative feedbacks or critics.
