We, the Church, are the Salt of the Earth. That means that we’re to disinfect and fertilize the Church. Jesus poses the question, “Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how will you make it salty again?” What does it mean for salt to lose its saltiness? And how do we, the Church, make sure we don’t lose our saltiness? Join Reverend Kenny Yates as he opens our eyes to the deeper importance of salt in his message, Show Me The Way Pt. 2: Salt to Self.
Show Me The Way
Salt to Self
13 You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.
Matthew 5:13
42 Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. 43 And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire. 45 And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell. 47 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell, 48 ‘where their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’ 49 For everyone will be salted with fire. 50 Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, how will you make it salty again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.
Mark 9:42-50
