Jesus Teaches About: Salt and Light 8/25/19

Matthew 5:13-16  (NLT)

13 “You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless.

14 “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden.15 No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Jesus wants to pack the world with salt, which happens to be his followers, like you and me, for the sole purpose of preserving our world from unworldly deterioration.

 

That leads us to point number 1

Point number 1 in your notes:

The Christian life is designed to prevent decay in the lives of those around us.
