Being Salt and Light in the World | Matthew

7/12/2020
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus uses two metaphors to describe His followers: “salt of the earth”, and “light of the world”. He expects His followers to impact and influence the world for His glory. We are to invade our culture in the way that salt invades food and light invades the darkness. Christians must get off the side-lines and get into the game! We cannot be silent, passive, or irrelevant. We must engage the culture, promote Biblical values, speak the truth, and live for Jesus and tell people about Jesus wherever and whenever we can-this is being salt and light.

I have even more respect for you Pastor. Knowing you are the pastor for the Sheriff department is important to me. Thank you for all you do. Wish we lived closer to hear you preach personally. (California)

[@khorneliady6120]

Now i know why we are the salt and light of this world.. Praying that more souls will come to Jesus through our personal testimonies.

[@martasanchezgarcia5124]

Thanks Marta

Thank u 🙏🏽

[@Ethel-np4nq]

This is so true! We should not just hoard God's good news within our Christian bubble.. It's supposed to be shared! So that many would be saved.. That's what the Lord calls us to do!

[@paulremnantone1102]

6/19/23 thank you for the message. Most churches are pushing, love, grace and mercy! We have forgotten how to be the salt! The world is becoming darker and darker. As this happens. We the light will stand out more and more in this dark world! This will make the persecution come! Be the salt and be the light in this dark world don’t conform to this community of LGBTQ! Don’t become the culture!

Thank you pastor. Live in Little Rock AR. I go do a life giving Church. However, I do all my Bible studies through you. Pastor G you have been a blessing on me learning The Bible. So I understand everything and just reading it. Bless you.

[@brentennielsen7293]

i think he confused alaskan sayings with minnesota sayings 😂

[@carolyncox7694]

Amen!!! I try to share Jesus whenever & wherever I go 😇 Many also say, "I share Jesus with my lifestyle & being positive & kind". This is not enough. We must lovingly communicate GRACE, GOD'S RICHES AT CHRIST'S EXPENSE. THANK YOU Pastor Gary for another inspiring & illuminating teaching!✨😇👍

[@eternalardour]

[@waaseh]

I wish he can elaborate more to those believers( my faith is my private life) who lost their saltiness.Jesus quite blunt about it. Its worthless. Throw it away. Matthew 25:30. Its so crucial to our salvation that Paul "begged" us to live a life that is worthy of his calling. Eph 4:1, 2 Thes 1:11

[@marthaudom6543]

Yes even in Canada

Salt is a ref to good. It purifies, as in was used to stop spreading bacteria etc (bad) and was used on crops as a fertiliser because it was feom the dead sea, full of other minerals like potash etc back then. I think it makes rust not prevents though so i will comment on thos point. Cars near beaches rust faster, it is known.

Light is wisdom. Light goves life.

[@melodleroy7408]

This is interesting, but really makes me wonder why God turned Lots wife into a pillar of salt??

[@eternalardour]

Disobedience. Did you read the passage or not. Jesus is called the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Satan's called a devouring lion. Context matters when you read Bible.

[@melodleroy7408]

This doesn’t answer the question! salt is a good thing a precious commodity back then why in her disobedience did He make her into something precious!

[@lydiabekker178]

​@@melodleroy7408it is different time periods. Lot was in the time of Abraham, before salt became a sought after commodity.
