Matthew 5:14-19 (Gospel, St. Tikhon)
- 14
- You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.
- 15
- Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
- 16
- Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
- 17
- Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
- 18
- For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
- 19
- Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
