Mark 9:50 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
Jesus compared being salty to having a good testimony. It meant that the believer would affect the community around him. Salt would give flavor. So every believer should desire to have salt in themselves. We do not want to dilute our testimony. We do not want to weaken our walk with the Lord. Do not change the gospel to fit into the world you live in. Don’t allow sin to contaminate you.
Are you living out who you are? Are you sharing the truth with those around you? Are you making a difference?
So often we prefer not to be an influence. We prefer to blend into the world. If no one knows that we are believers, we will not be mocked.
So here is our lesson. Be salty. Be who you were meant to be.
