WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SALT AND LIGHT?
Bible Study Verses: Matthew 5:13-16, Hosea 4:6, Amos 8:11-13, Matthew 5:13-16, James 2:19, I Corinthians 14:8, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Matthew 1:21, 2 Cor. 5:11, John 14:1-3.
“Imagine a lot of people who have always lived in the dark. You come and try to describe to them what light is like. You might tell them that if they come into the light that same light would fall on them all and they would all reflect it and thus become what we call visible. Is it not quite possible that they would imagine that, since they were all receiving the same light, and all reacting to it in the same way (i.e. all reflecting it), they would all look alike? Whereas you and I know that the light will in fact bring out, or show up, how different they are. Or again, suppose a person who knew nothing about salt. You give him a pinch to taste and he experiences a particular strong, sharp taste. You then tell him that in your country people use salt in all their cookery. Might he not reply ‘In that case I suppose all your dishes taste exactly the same: because the taste of that stuff you have just given me is so strong that it will kill the taste of everything else.’ But you and I know that the real effect of salt is exactly the opposite” CS Lewis, Mere Christianity*
“You are the salt of the earth . . . You are the light of the world.” Matt. 5:13-14.” NKJV
Why did so many churches loose their light and savor?
How do we get the believers back to fulfilling the very purpose of God of being the salt and light of the world?
