Being Lights

Review and Herald Publishing Association · Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C. · Nov 14, 1907

BEING lighted is never the end of the Christian’s life; not even being lighted from above. Being “lights”—that is the end. The moon is bright when it happens to be in a bright place; when the earth comes between it and the sun, it is dark. There are moonlight Christians who are bright enough when lighted by God’s manifest favor, but if the darkness of earth—a sorrow or a burden—rises between them and God, they are black and dark. . . . Christ would have us so “dwell in the light” that we may become “children of the light,” in whom there is “no darkness at all.”—Selected.
