Salt & Light – Matthew 5:13-16

How should Christians relate to the unbelieving world around us? The answer that Jesus gives is that we are to be like salt and light. In this sermon, Pastor David explains that in word and deed we are to help preserve the earth from spiritual and moral decay and we are to shine the light of the Gospel into the world of darkness.

Matthew 5:13–16 “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. 14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
