[3061.76 --> 3062.46] showing the world
[3062.46 --> 3063.26] who God is
[3063.26 --> 3064.24] and what he's like
[3064.24 --> 3065.62] and how we can come
[3065.62 --> 3066.36] to him.
[3066.42 --> 3067.06] And today,
[3067.38 --> 3068.22] that continues
[3068.22 --> 3069.06] with Christians
[3069.06 --> 3070.14] called to be
[3070.14 --> 3071.08] that lighthouse.
[3071.44 --> 3072.52] Our lives are meant
[3072.52 --> 3074.46] to reflect God's holiness
[3074.46 --> 3075.46] and his love
[3075.46 --> 3076.28] to the world.
[3076.40 --> 3077.62] We are set apart,
[3077.82 --> 3078.24] holy,
[3078.58 --> 3080.02] not to hide away,
[3080.20 --> 3080.96] but to shine
[3080.96 --> 3081.96] God's light
[3081.96 --> 3083.14] for others to see.
[3084.74 --> 3085.74] Like priests,
[3086.14 --> 3087.94] we bring God's presence,
[3088.08 --> 3088.96] his blessing
[3088.96 --> 3089.78] to the world,
[3089.92 --> 3090.68] guiding others
[3090.68 --> 3091.84] to find their way
[3091.84 --> 3092.84] to him.
[3092.84 --> 3094.28] and our going
[3094.28 --> 3095.78] is for revealing.
[3095.98 --> 3097.68] And this goes perfectly
[3097.68 --> 3100.16] into the next idea
[3100.16 --> 3100.92] that our going
[3100.92 --> 3102.14] is for sharing.
[3103.42 --> 3104.14] We've already used
[3104.14 --> 3104.90] the image of light,
[3105.00 --> 3105.90] so let's continue it.
[3106.56 --> 3108.62] In Isaiah 49,
[3109.12 --> 3112.52] Isaiah 49, verse 6,
[3113.42 --> 3114.48] we read that,
[3115.48 --> 3117.00] it is too small a thing
[3117.00 --> 3118.24] for you to be my servant
[3118.24 --> 3119.90] and restore the tribes
[3119.90 --> 3120.32] of Jacob
[3120.32 --> 3121.00] and bring back
[3121.00 --> 3121.70] those of the house
[3121.70 --> 3122.84] of Israel I have kept.
[3123.16 --> 3124.80] I will also make you
[3124.80 --> 3126.72] a light for the Gentiles
[3126.72 --> 3128.22] that my salvation
[3128.22 --> 3129.00] may reach
[3129.00 --> 3129.74] to the ends
[3129.74 --> 3130.84] of the earth.
[3132.22 --> 3133.30] God's point here
[3133.30 --> 3135.52] is that it's not enough
[3135.52 --> 3136.06] for Israel
[3136.06 --> 3137.76] just to be for herself,
[3138.02 --> 3139.34] but Israel is to be
[3139.34 --> 3140.44] for every nation,
[3140.58 --> 3142.72] a light to every nation.
[3142.84 --> 3143.26] Our going
[3143.26 --> 3144.26] is for showing.
[3144.66 --> 3146.50] God sends his people out
[3146.50 --> 3148.26] to show the world
[3148.26 --> 3149.46] his salvation.
[3149.46 --> 3151.40] and he sends his people
[3151.40 --> 3152.38] out to show the world
[3152.38 --> 3153.96] how to find their way
[3153.96 --> 3154.70] back to him,
[3154.78 --> 3155.86] to be brought back
[3155.86 --> 3157.56] to him by his grace
[3157.56 --> 3158.70] and mercy.
[3159.74 --> 3161.92] This idea of God
[3161.92 --> 3162.84] lighting the way
[3162.84 --> 3164.12] is actually ultimately
[3164.12 --> 3165.64] fulfilled in Jesus
[3165.64 --> 3166.34] who says,
[3166.72 --> 3167.56] I am the light
[3167.56 --> 3168.10] of the world.
[3169.10 --> 3170.34] But that same Jesus
[3170.34 --> 3170.98] who says,
[3171.06 --> 3171.62] I am the light
[3171.62 --> 3172.10] of the world,
[3172.38 --> 3173.22] in John 8,
[3173.30 --> 3173.54] he says,
[3173.62 --> 3174.14] I am the light
[3174.14 --> 3174.54] of the world.
[3174.62 --> 3175.52] Whoever follows me
[3175.52 --> 3176.24] will never walk
[3176.24 --> 3176.68] in darkness,
[3176.68 --> 3177.28] but will have
[3177.28 --> 3177.70] the light
[3177.70 --> 3178.28] of life.
[3178.70 --> 3179.56] That same Jesus
[3179.56 --> 3180.00] who says,
[3180.12 --> 3180.54] I am the light
[3180.54 --> 3180.96] of the world,
[3181.20 --> 3182.04] stands in front
[3182.04 --> 3183.28] of you as his disciples
[3183.28 --> 3183.84] and says,
[3184.00 --> 3185.08] you are the light
