You Are The Salt Of The Earth

By
The Man Who Saw God Face To Face

You Are The Salt Of The Earth.
         This means:
  1. You are spirits, which neither die nor perish.
  2. It is this spirit that animates and dominates all things.
  3. You are the sons of the living God.
  4. Dominion belongs to you. You have the power to dominate the world and dictate what happens in it.
  5. It is man who has covenant with God, and who also benefits from the covenant. The everlasting covenant of God is with you, sealed with the blood of Jesus and confirmed by the Holy Spirit of Truth.
  6. You are children of the king of the universe. As such, you are kings and masters of the universe.
  7. All things on earth were created for your pleasure and are at your service. The world was made because of you.
  8. Be seasoned with the gospel (spiritual knowledge and wisdom), with the salt of grace (love and mercy), so that you can become perfect even as your heavenly Father is perfect.
  9. You are the most important thing in the world.
  10. It is your duty to prevent corruption and ensure righteousness.
Learn The Characteristics Of Salt.
         Every good salt has the following characteristics:
  1. Salt is very useful and necessary.
  2. It is silent, but active. It works silently - peacefully and non-violently.
  3. A little salt spreads to all the contents in a vessel. (You are small but mighty. Everyone is a Small God.)
  4. It dominates every other flavour.
  5. The Gospel is like salt; it is penetrating, quick, and powerful (Hebrews 4:12).
  6. it reaches the innermost parts Acts 2:37.
  7. It is uniform in spread. Truth is the same all over the universe.
  8. It is cleansing and purifying.
  9. It preserves from putrefaction. It fights corruption, by killing germs and by preserving food.
  10. It makes food to taste nice. Its absence makes food tasteless, and so to say, worthless.
         The Implications are: You shall:
  1. Transform others into children of the kingdom.
  2. Must be scattered like salt upon the food, in order to reach and transform others.
If Salt Loses Its Worth, How Can Its Saltiness Be Restored.
  • The ignorant masses happily follow blind ministers, because the ministers are called reverends. Time shall come, and now is, when the populace shall discover that ignorant ministers do not know the Truth. Then, they shall say to the ignorant ministers, "You know neither the destination nor the route. You do not even know yourself or the King we seek."
  • The salt that has lost its savour (significance) means that those who are not spiritual cannot teach others about spiritual things of life.
  • Man was created with the Holy Spirit of God. If man refuses to live according to the direction of Holy Spirit, he is no longer doing what he supposes to do. He acts contrary to his nature. The result shall be mockery and torment from the evil spirits. Instead of living as a master of the universe, man lives at the mercy of fate. This is truly what is happening to many, who sinned and refused to repent.
  • If a man wills himself to be evil, there is no remedy, except for him to be cast into the outer darkness. He is then is unprofitable, good for nothing, and doomed forever. He shall be cast out (because he is worthless) - and be trodden under foot (and be treated as one of the demons).
