The Gospel

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

[Paul, writing to Christians @ Corinth, 1 Cor. 15:1-4]

Matthew 5:13

Title: You are the salt of the earth


Salt is good.

It is a good preservative.

But it is best as a flavoring agent.

Almost anything can be preserved, even bad things, but we don’t want to do that. We want to change things for the better first; we want to bring out the best in people, to cause the myriad of flavors to be added into their lives, their relationship with God and with all men. And once that has been accomplished, the good salt can now preserve what has been changed.
