Bible Study About Light

(logically compiled by Bill Stevenson)

Note: The following is from the KJV Bible and has been slightly edited for teaching purposes. I hope that it will
help you to understand “light” better. I did not use all of the 235 verses which had the 294 appearances of
the word “light”. Figure out the reasons why I grouped and ordered the verses I used.

It seems that the Age of Grace is ending, so let us use the time God allows us to have to be His righteous,
influential and powerful lights to the world. A true Christian should have the priorities that are indicated in
Philippians 2:1-5 and Jude 20-23.
Suggestions along with living Proverbs 3:5-6 more frequently:
1.) Live and share the last two Bible passages as often as you can.
2.) Put political and church issues at a low priority. So many people need to see true Christianity being
manifested by a lot more individuals.
