Christ's famous command that his followers are to be "salt" in the world around them... and a warning that if they do nothing to share their experience of the Gospel, they aren't being helpful to anyone at all. Light of the World in the Bible: Matthew 5:13-15http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matt.5.13-Matt.5.15&version=NIV2009-07-17T08:40:01-05:00
Jesus' followers are described as the "light of the world." Just as it would be pointless to turn on a light and then cover it up, it would be foolish if we accepted Christ and then made no effort to do his work in the world. Christians are to spread the light of truth on the world around them.
