MULTI-COLORED CHRISTIANS

Matthew 5:14

"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill can not be hidden"

Different kinds of light shine differently but all light erases the shadows darkness. We are to be as lights on a hill, not hidden. We are to draw others out of the shadows of darkness and into the light and love of Christ Jesus.

A red bulb will shine a glow of righteous warmth. A kind of light that must shine truth into a world of dark anger. Red bulb Christians use the light of Christ to shine a righteous anger for the glory of the Lord. Righteous anger shows up when others are being oppressed and shines a warmth of truth that speaks volumes of love. Righteous anger and love go hand in hand and it is only the love of Jesus Christ that can lead all souls to heaven. It is the warm glow of Christ in your heart that will lead you to speak up when others are being told to shut up. The world of anger has a strong tongue and will use it to try and suppress all that is good and right in order to obtain its own agenda.

A blue bulb cast a cool refreshing light. We must be able to shine this light in to situations that requires patience in times of struggle. A person who shines the blue light of patience is the one who's life reflects the one who is the water of life. This blue light Christian is eager to give a drink to all who thirst for truth so that they to will never thirst again. Truth is refreshing, and it revives all who have become dehydrated by the lies of this dark world. Truth brings strength, and with truth and strength we are able to walk renewed and stand firm in a world full of lies and darkness. A Christian blue light is one who will draw others with patience to the cross of Christ and will never force someone to drink the truth but will make others thirsty for the waters of life by the way they live their own life in Christ. To one who is lost it will be refreshing to see someone glowing with patience.

A green light person is one who shines promise amid death. Green is the promise of life. The green light Christian is gifted with the ability to show others that greener days are coming for all who live in Christ Jesus. Some are lost from the memory of their childhood faith. This life and its problems seem to have buried that faith in a sea of burden. Life happened and they grew up and grew out of their love for the Lord. They were over come by the heaviness of the weight of the world upon their shoulders. The green light person is able to shine renewed light into this persons life to remind them that it is Christ who is the one who must carry our burdens and it is Christ who longs to carry you when life gets heavy. Don't take the weight of the world upon your shoulders, Christ already did that when he carried his cross up Calvary's hill and opened up his arms and said it is finished. The green light person is a garden hope for those who have fallen by the wayside of life. Green corresponds the gift of growth that comes from the tree of life to all who will accept it freely. Ignoring the cross of Christ causes death to your soul but a fresh light from the word of God can restore your soul and you will be able to taste and see the goodness of God in the garden of life.

Some have the gift of being a beacon light. The are standing tall and strong in the midst of the storms of life so that all who have lost their way can see a hope of returning. The Christian who is a beacon light is one who is willing to stand with the lost during the storm. They are the ones who will not walk away when they hear someone crying out for help. They are the one who will continue to stand and shine the light of truth no matter who or what is coming against them. The beacon lights of this world are the ones who will shine out into the sea of sin and proclaim that all is not lost, that there is a way to come back. They are willing to stand and shine the truth even if it is to save just one dying soul for they know and realize that all the angels in heaven do rejoice over one lost sinner returning to the courts of heaven. The beacon light is one who has stood the test of time and will not fail his lost brothers in a time of darkness. This beacon light of a Christian will not only stand and shine their light but they will search out and look for the lost. They will stay planted on the firm foundation of Christ Jesus and they will search through an ocean of lies to find just one who is seeking to be saved by the truth.

Some are gifted with the ability to glow like a black light. They are able to go into this world  and cause others to see changes in themselves. They are able to bring about the goodness of the light in you even if your surrounded by darkness. A black light affects the darkness differently then a regular light. A black light will make any little bit of white glow. Unlike other lights that light up a room so that others can see, a black light does not actually light up the whole room but it causes all that looks white to show up in the dark. This black light Christian is able to make those hiding in the cover of darkness able to see themselves differently. They are given the ability to shine light into the dark hearts of those who think that God can not see them. They make all that is light shine brighter, they are able to show those who are hiding from God that God sees the goodness in them and that even though they think they are hiding, God wants them to come to him and repent so that he can bless them and carry them out of the darkness. The purpose of a black light Christian is to keep others from trying to hide from God. Every time someone tries to hide their sin from God, God continues to show them that they can not hide from him and that there is goodness in them that only comes from him.
