Theme of the Month: The Secret message of salt
Sat, 05 November

“Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savor, wherewith shall it be seasoned? 35 It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” (Luke 14:34,35).

The Lord is speaking here of salt which has lost its savor. As He saw the multitudes coming to Him. He was comparing the life of a sinner to salt that has lost its savor. He could see two kinds of people; one, a very small group, which could be called salt; the other, a large group, perhaps more than 5,000, who could be called salt that had lost its savor. The good salt was very small in quantity, answering to the handful of disciples that followed Him. The others were those who loved just to see miracles and eat loaves and fishes; and the Lord compared them with salt that had lost its savor.

The dunghill provides food for ants, worms, and other small insects. Our Lord says the salt that has lost its savor is not fit even for the dunghill; it is useless, so much so, that if you bring ants, worms and insects and put them in it, they will not stay there long; for even they cannot thrive in it. The salt that has lost its savor is useless and must be thrown away somewhere. Such is the condition of the person who has not been saved.

If you cannot say truthfully, joyfully and clearly, that the Lord has forgiven you your sins, washed away your defilement, and given you a new divine nature, you are like the salt that has lost its savor. No matter who you are, you are useless. Your stay upon this earth is only a burden. Wherever you go and wherever you live, you will bring nothing but misery and sorrow. Those who are not truly born again can never say truthfully that they are of any help or use to others. Their life is being wasted.
