Our job as Christians is to “witness to all about the light”(truth about Jesus). Simply put, it is to point others to God. We do this by preaching the Gospel, the Good News about what God did for us; to rescue us from our condemnation as a sinner. We are not the light or the Good News, but we are by-products, renewed souls because of it. The reason we live under Grace and not the law is to allow God to shine His light through us into the lives of others, so that they won’t have reason to not believe us, and to see our good works and praise Him for it. In essence, we are moonshiners. What does the moon do? It reflects the sun. And so should we, reflect the Son.
6 God sent a man, John the Baptist, 7 to tell about the light so that everyone might believe because of his testimony. 8 John himself was not the light; he was simply a witness to tell about the light.
John 1:6-8
