Understanding the Time
Jesus also said to the people, "When you see a cloud coming up in the west, at once you say that it is going to rain -and it does. And when you feel the south wind blowing, you say that it is going to get hot -and it does. Hypocrites! You can look at the Earth and the sky and predict the weather; why, then, don't you know the meaning of this present time?
The Light of the Body
"No one lights a lamp and then hides it or puts it under a bowl; instead, it is put on the lampstand, so that people may see the light as they come in. Your eyes are like a lamp for the body. When your eyes are sound, your whole body is full of light; but when your eyes are no good, your whole body will be in darkness. Make certain, then, that the light in you is not darkness. If your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, it will be bright all over, as when a lamp shines on you with its brightness.
