Matthew 5:13-20

5:13 "You
are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how can its
saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything but is thrown
out and trampled under foot.

5:14 "You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid.

5:15 People
do not light a lamp put it under the bushel basket; rather they put it
on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.

5:16 In
the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see
your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.

5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have come not to abolish but to fulfill.

5:18 For
truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter, not
one stroke of a letter, will pass from the law until all is
accomplished.

5:19 Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of
these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called
least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them
will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

5:20 For I tell
you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and
Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
