There are no scriptures directly relating to lighthouses.There are many scriptures relating to God's people being a light to the world, and over time, some versions of the Bible have altered the wording to be "Lighthouse" rather than "a light". An example is found in Isaiah 42:6, which states: "I have set you among my people to bind them to Me, and provided you as a light to the nations."

Why does the Church of Christ ignore scriptures that don't fit their traditions?
To ignore things that may affect their faith.That makes no sense. They are ignoring God's words. There are many scriptures in the Bible that say true Christians are not under the law at all...no law of any kind. The church claims these scriptures mean the opposite to what they say, and will not discuss them. The church has its traditions, and will uphold them at all costs, even over the Bible..Catholic AnswerIf you are referring to the Catholic Church, Catholics believe that the Catholic Church is what Our Blessed Lord founded to save all men throughout all time. That CHURCH wrote the Scriptures (The New Testament) throughout the first hundred years after Our Blessed Lord left His Church in charge. Then in the late fourth century, the Catholic Church, through Her pope and Bishops drew up the canon of Scripture. The Catholic Church CANNOT ignore any Scriptures, nor, for that matter, can any Scriptures not fit with Tradition. ALL Scripture came out of Tradition, and the Church, by its very commission from God must uphold both, which is why it cannot countenance the protestant heresies which ignore Tradition, and mutilate the Scriptures.

The Bible was not written at one time. Parts of the Bible such as the Pentateuch were composed and referenced in later books such as Ruth and Psalms which were in turn referenced in later books like the Gospels. There is no "original Bible". The Bible officially sanctioned by the Catholic Church was the Latin Vulgate, which may be what you are referring to, but it was not the first incarnation of the Bible. Note: Bible means "Book".
What holy book is used for the Orthodox Church?
There are two: 1) The Holy Bible, and 2) The Holy Tradition. The Orthodox Church views the Holy Bible as being very important, and equal with the Holy Tradition (ie. the unwritten and oral traditions of Jesus Christ and the Church). The Holy Scriptures are a collection of Books of the New Testament that came out of the Holy Tradition of the Early Christian Church. The Bible did not just appear out of thin air, it was revealed by God and later put together by the holy Fathers of the Orthodox Church. At the time when Jesus Christ established His Church in Jerusalem in 33 AD, there was no Bible. There were only the Old Testament scriptures. So for the first few centuries of its existence, the Church had no New Testament Scriptures at all, and for at least the first 500 years, there was no printed Bible as we have today. Most people could not even read or write and there was certainly no printing press at that time. The people would hear the Scriptures and hold the traditions they were taught by the priests and bishops at that time (2 Thess 2:15). Christ says, "blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it" (Luke 11:28).
If the Protestant Bible is King James what is the name of Catholic Bible?
Catholic AnswerThere is no "Protestant Bible". The Bible translation most commonly used by protestants is the Authorized Version, commonly known as the King James Version, which is the name of a translation of the Bible. The Bible is a whole collection of books, and as such does not have a name. The early Church used the Septuagint for their Old Testament, and had many different scrolls in Latin and Greek for their New Testament Scriptures. The first "official" Bible, as in one continuous book was The Vulgate which was a translations of all the Scriptures by St. Jerome in the fourth century. The closest thing that the Catholic Church has in English is the Douay-Rheims translation, which was made about the same time as the Authorized Version.
Does the bible state that scholars are required to interpret?
