Luke 8:16-18
Chapter 8
16
“No one, after lighting a lamp, covers it with a bowl or puts it under the bed; instead, they place it on a lampstand so that everyone entering may see the light.
17
In the same way, there is nothing hidden that will not be uncovered; nothing kept secret that will not be revealed clearly.
18
Now, pay attention and listen carefully, for whoever produces will be given more; but from those who do not produce, even what they seem to have will be taken away from them.”

The Light of the Lamp.
The light of the Gospel and faith is meant to be communicated and shared. Those who fail to share it will lose everything, even what they seem to have.
