Jesus said believers in him, were the salt of the earth. Salt preserves food and keeps it from spoiling. It enhances the flavor of the food. Additionally, salt can make one thirsty. Salt in biblical times was precious and used to pay wages (salary).
When Christians, walk close with Yahweh (the covenant keeping God, who is always with them), their presence preserves society. Believers add flavor, as they show Yahweh’s love, compassion, and mercy. Their peace, while walking through the storms of life, make others thirsty to know God. Their caring presence is valuable. However, when they merely go through the motions, have no relationship with Yahweh, they have lost their salty flavor and the ability to preserve their community.
Lord, I thirst for more of you, today. Make me salty, with your presence.
You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its flavor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled on by people. (Matthew 5:13 NET)

Thank you for a post on salt of the earth! Christ in our hearts by faith! Salted with fire (Mark 9:49) keeps the continuous flow of oil of the Holy Spirit in us burning bright and crystal-clear (Revelation 22:1); as “wise virgins” born again of God, of His Spirit, taking the Water of Life without price, the Spirit of Christ’s Light of Glory, light shining in this dark fallen world system, pointing everyone to Christ on the Throne, and asking and receiving Christ in our hearts by faith in Jesus and His Cross, adding to the light, exposing the darkness and revealing the Truth of God our Father and His Lamb, giving all the glory to God!!! As the world gets darker, those in Christ and Christ in you get brighter! thank You Jesus!
