Matthew 5:13-5:16

Salt and Light in an Evil World

Jesus said, "You are the light of the world." Christ-followers are kingdom-minded and as light, we have a way of relating to the world that is unique and different and also resented in the world. When Jesus said it another way, "You are the salt of the earth," implied is that there is decay or rottenness that requires a preserver. Join Pastor Lloyd for a look at this daily calling to be salt and light.

  1. Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
  2. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
  3. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
  4. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
