PARABLE 11/09/07: The following question came to mind and it was quickened to my heart. “No matter where you plan to eat your lunch, how long does it take you to grab a french fry after you have gone through the drive through?”

That’s what it’s like to be the salt of the earth.

 

Col 4:5-6 NKJV
Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt , that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

Mark 9:50 NKJV
Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another."

Matt 5:13-16 NKJV
You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
