You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. Matthew 5:13
RECOMMENDED READING: 1 Peter 2:11-12
A certain farmer fertilized part of his pasture with minerals gathered from
an ancient, dried seabed. When he let his cows into the pasture, they immediately gravitated toward the section that had been fertilized with the sea minerals. They relished the taste of the grass that had absorbed the salty minerals from the seabed.
For thousands of years, salt has played a pivotal role in human civilizations. Not only does it provide flavor to food, but it preserves food as well. In the right balance, salt is a necessary nutrient for human life. It also creates thirst in those who consume it, prompting hydration for good health. Jesus said that His followers are “the salt of the earth.”
We can only assume that He was referencing the ancient uses of salt: adding flavor, preventing decay, and creating thirst. Those are the effects His followers are to have on the world around them.
As you read and apply the Word of God, let it make you a person who impacts your world for Christ.

Salt also irritates. Real living Christianity rubs this world the wrong way.
