No man, when he has lighted a lamp, puts it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a lampstand, that they who come in may see the light.
All Commentaries on Luke 11:33 Go To Luke 11
Ambrose of Milan
AD 397
Either faith is the light, as it is written, Your word. O Lord, is a lantern to my feet. For the word of God is our faith. But a lantern cannot shine except it has received its quality from something else. Hence also the powers of our mind senses are enlightened piece of money which had been lost may be found. Let no one then place faith under the law, forthe law is bound by certain limits, grace is unlimited; the law obscures, grace makes clear.
