Matthew 5:13-17

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Matthew 5:13-17

13You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its savor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they set it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.
16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
17Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them.
— Matthew 5:13-17
