... conscience. Ye were sincere and uncorrupted, and forgetful of injuries between one another. Every kind of faction and schism was abominable in your sight.

The commandments and ordinances of the Lord were written upon the tablets of your hearts.[Proverbs 7:3]

For whom will they shine? For those below them who will enjoy their light, after the analogy of the sun which now shines for those upon the earth? For, of course, they will not shine for themselves.
