In recent years, SALT has had a bad rap in the world of nutrition, and there is a tendency to think that salt is 100% bad. The truth is that salt is of great importance in maintaining the normal bodily functions of life. The need for moderation cannot be overstated.
Today, however, we will examine salt from a different perspective.
Before refrigeration, salt was used to preserve food and hence used to move military personnel at war times.
In Roman times, salt was so valuable that soldiers were paid in SALT! The word salary comes from salt as it’s root word!
The importance of salt is most highlighted in these words of Jesus:
Matthew 5:13-16 New International Version (NIV)
13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
As Christians, we are charged with the responsibility of being salt on the earth:
We bring preservation, flavor, wealth, and healing to a decaying world!
