for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (Ephesians 5:8, ESV)
For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness. (1 Thessalonians 5:5, ESV)
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9, ESV)
