Thoughts on being the Salt of the Earth

These are just a few thoughts about salt that I think Jesus could have meant when he said that we, the Church, are supposed to be the Salt of the Earth.

  • Salt enhances & brings out the flavor of whatever is being cooked
  • Salt heals
  • Salt preserves and keeps fresh
  • Salt is never the main ingredient
  • Too much salt ruins the taste
  • Too much salt is unhealthy
  • Salt balances well with sweet
  • Salt creates a thirst & desire for water (with Jesus being the living water)
