Salt and Light

Salt and Light

Aug 04, 2024

Passage: Matthew 5:13-16

Preacher: Bill Massey

Series: Sermon on the Mount

Category: Sunday Morning

Detail:

Sermon Intro: In the Beatitudes, Jesus described the character qualities of His disciples. But now, Jesus uses the metaphors of salt and light to describe their influence on the world. In a sense, this is startling! What kind of effective influence can the people just described have in a world that opposes them? What lasting good can the poor, meek, mourning, and merciful have? Wouldn’t they just be swept away by a tide of evil? Jesus says, “No.” The influence of His church will be far and wide in a world that persecutes it.
