Please don't tell me of your personal salvation. I'll celebrate that with you, but I want to talk to you about the salt of your life, the light of your life, the influence in the midst of the darkness.

Jesus audience said, we're the covenant people.

We're Abraham's kids and Jesus said, you should be quiet.

He could make Abe's kids out of rocks.

We're saved by grace, folks. We didn't earn it. We don't deserve it.

We didn't manufacture it. God called us out of the darkness that we might be a

light if we choose not to be the light in the midst of the

darkness the consequences are significant.

We've been doing a study on the Gospel of Luke and I've invited you to a little extra reading assignment for which I know you're just

thrilled beyond all measure beyond our normal Bible reading once a year as a congregation we read through our Bible systematically

together if you're not joining us come on it will change your faith it will

deliver you from deception and it will

prepare you for whatever is before us

but in addition to that that's about a 15 minute a day commitment

depending on your reading style and speed but beyond that I've invited you for the last couple of weeks

to read the gospel of Luke with me.
