Matthew 5:13-16

13“You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its flavor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled on by people.

14You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill cannot be hidden.

15People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.

16In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor to your Father in heaven.
