Matt.5:14 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can't be hidden.
Christ Jesus the light of our world, having the Holy Spirit of God, why? Because he was sinless, he needed no remission for his sin, he was holy God's light that the Holy Spirit could work through as a useful vessel for God's good pleasure.
Soon these that Christ was speaking to would also become sinless, how? Through Christ Jesus giving them his sinless life, substituting his life in place of their own, but there is more! These were to be made into the spiritual body of Christ Jesus the one good tree having only good fruit upon it, what type? Sinless fruit produced from God's Holy Spirit, without yeast, of corruption, from human sin. Yes, they would be dead to the flesh, and raised into the body of Christ Jesus, and/or grafted into the sinless tree of Christ Jesus. Hence, the light of the world by Christ Jesus own righteousness, not their own!
A light no one could put out by human wisdom or human unrighteousness through teachings of false religion.
On the other, hand the light to the world through the law of Moses was fading away as the real light too the world was speaking; soon those stubbornly staying in the Law of Moses would lose their light and find nothing but darkness and judgment by their righteousness, why? Simply because the atonement for the Old Law would be removed, that which made them righteous for breaking the law of Moses – animal blood sacrifices.
The blood of Christ was not used for the Old Law/Old Covenant, Christ did not die for you to live under the Old Law, but instead, so you could live under the New law of love in freedom from judgment of the Old Law. Here is the fatal mistake so many law Christian's make in deceiving themselves by rules of laws of their man-made religion thinking they have fooled God into giving them eternal life by meeting such rules as being created by God Himself.
Twisting the Old and New Covenants into a earn by merit religion through self-good works, and calling it the New-Covenant the light of the world. When in fact,Jesus Christ spoke saying: “no good tree produces bad fruit”. In other world, mixing old, and the new corrupts the whole lump of teachings of the Christ. One cannot put new wine into old wineskin they will burst, and how many times have law-Christian's burst in to self-destruction trying to prove Christ wrong in their own self-righteousness?
