Meaning.
The Bible contains numerous references to salt. In various contexts, it is used metaphorically to signify permanence, loyalty, durability, fidelity, usefulness, value, and purification.
1. No matter how little the Salt in the food, you will still taste it.
2. The measure of Salt should equal the food as too much of it spoils the appetite.
3. Less of it in the food will not deter you from eating but with each bite, a reminder that you need some more flashes.
4. You can miss all other ingredients in your food but salt will stand out tall.
5. Salt is added to the food in smaller amounts and stays long on the shelves without losing its original value.
6. Salt with a savour can prevent fresh food from decaying.
7. Salt that loses its savour is good for nothing. No matter how much you put in your food there will be no change and the best is to throw it away. It is a commodity we are not ashamed to ask for from the neighbor if we don’t have it on our restaurant table or indeed in our homes. Keep enough salt but don’t abuse it as it has serious consequences if abused.
Christians, let’s make a positive impact to the world that is thirsty for some Salt with savour still intact.
Matthew 5:13 KJV
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.
“I’ve often said this: “You be salty; the earth will be thirsty.” He said, “You’re the salt of the earth.” You just get salty, the earth will get thirsty. You live such in your neighborhood and around your people, the people know, say, “There’s a real Christian; I’ll tell you that. If there ever was a Christian there she is, or there he is.” That’s the way to be.”
I’d rather have that in my heart than all the gifts there is, God has in His Bible. That’s right.
