Christians must be like lights in the world

12 So, my friends, you must continue to obey God.[a] When I was with you, you always obeyed. Now that I am not with you, that is even more important. God has saved you. You must always live in a way which shows that is true. Respect God and obey him. Remember that he is great and powerful. 13 It is God himself who is working in you.

14 Whatever you are doing, do not complain. And do not argue.
