Salt of the Earth

We are the salt of the earth. The Bible does teach us that. The children of God are the salt of the earth. (Matt. 5:13)

What are the properties of salt? Salt has many properties. We can take a lesson from them.

One of them is, that when you taste salt, you immediately know what it is. You don't have to guess what you have tasted. You know it is salt. If it is good salt, you know it is salt.


That ought to be with us, beloved brethren. By our lifestyle, how we live, how we interact with people - if we are kind and compassionate, as the Lord was, as we work among our co-laborers and also even our families; children, brothers and sisters in faith. That we are kind and gentle, compassionate, love each other. The Bible says, by this shall all men know that ye are my people (John 13:35).

We ought to remember that, beloved ones. It is not only the words that we speak, but it is the life that we live. The example we show to others. That is the most important thing of all.
