Scripture: Matthew 5:13a

In the Sermon on the Mount before Jesus taught “turn-the-other-cheek” Christianity, He said, “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned?”  The church is pretty much saltless.  And we know that it is saltless because the salt is the covenantal righteousness that a King is charged with administering in the earth.  If the church is not administering covenantal righteousness and upholding biblical boundaries of right and wrong, then what previous generations bought and paid for is completely lost  and freedom evaporates.  The last forty years of American history is a blinking neon sign advertising the fact that a once strong, vibrant church has forfeited its judicial anointing and no longer carries the salt that Jesus died to make available.  Can we regain our salt?  Is it possible?  The answer is absolutely yes!  One God-given assignment in publishing the “Word At Work” is helping the church recover salt!
