What did Jesus mean when He referred to believers as the 'salt of the earth'?
Simply put, salt is effective at adding taste to food.
Believers are to be effective at adding taste to life especially after 1 Peter 2:3...
Without God, life is bland, kind of like bread and no butter.
When the world tastes the salt of the Earth, they say, "we want more of that".
For who walks around with nothing but has a smile on their hearts?
Or who actually uses wisdom to overlook an offense?
Christ is the Bread of Life. We are the Salt of the Earth.
He is the main dish. We are the condiments.
He is the groom. We are the bride.
He is coming for us. And we will be with Him for eternity.
Does that move you at all? Or do you find yourself saying "eh, ok"?
Do you wish that Christ would continue to delay his Coming so that you can move forward with your plans?
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!
FOR HE WILL COME AT A TIME WHEN YOU ARE MOVING RIGHT ALONG WITH YOUR PLANS AND YOU MAY BE LEFT BEHIND BECAUSE YOU BECAME OBLIVIOUS TO HIS.
