Did you know, as Christians, we are referred to as the 'salt of the earth'? Let's look through the Gospel of Matthew to unpack the profound meaning behind this metaphor. This episode illuminates our role as believers, focusing on the powerful impact a few devout souls can have on the society and the world at large. We remind ourselves that we carry the savor of holiness, joy, peace, mercy, and truth. And how these are not just essential to our lives, but also to the Church and our world.
Ever wondered about the significance of salt in the Gospel? In the Old Testament, it was used in sacrifices under the laws of Moses, symbolizing an everlasting covenant. We unravel the symbolism, and the importance of spreading the gospel and loving Jesus, so others too can find the path to salvation.
As we conclude this series, we delve into soul-stirring topics like being born again and the importance of acknowledging our sins. We reflect on the questions posed by Nicodemus to Jesus and emphasize the deep significance of grace, faith, and the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus. In this discourse, we scrutinize the spiritual reality of the church, discuss potential religious hypocrisy, and our responsibilities as Christians. As we wrap up, we stress the critical task of spreading God's word globally and its potential to bring solace to people everywhere. Let's delve in, shall we?
NEW BOOK! I'm pleased to say that we have completed a new book that has been years in the making. The Ten Shirot: Songs of Redemption looks at ten songs that were sung through pivotal times in Scripture. It's an examination of the redemption of Jesus, of worship, and of Scripture in a way that we believe you probably haven't seen before. Check it out at https://a.co/d/0a4KIooL .
