Light Shines When We Turn to God, Pastor Promotes Faith
The Paine Methodist service led by Rev. Hammond in place of the ailing Rev. Chappell urged turning to God for light. Paul’s call for let there be light illustrated how human hearts, shrouded in darkness, can be illumined by Jesus Christ and the Holy Word. The sermon warned against remaining in unbelief, urged readers to seek the light, and recalled Moses and the burning bush as guiding imagery.
