Book	Matthew 5:13-16	Presentation Slide : Link
15 Mins	This passage is a continuation of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. In it Jesus talks about what he would like his followers to do and be in this world: salt and light
	Salt uses:
	1. Give & enhance flavor
	Salt is very different from other tastes that we know. If Christians are to be salt, it is important that our words, attitudes and actions are distinctive from everyone else’s. Salt enhances whatever it is added to: Christians are to change the flavor of whatever the environment we find ourselves in. Instead of being influenced by culture, we are to influence our culture for good, just as salt brings out the best flavor of food.
	2. Natural preservatives
	It prevents food from spoiling (like the kimchi we talked about). In the same way we should act as preservatives: example of purity in a decaying world
	V.13 Jesus points out that salt that has lost its flavor is worthless; it is nothing more than sand. In the same way, our contributions to God’s kingdom are worthless if we are not acting as salt in our world.
	3. Natural antibiotics
	Salt can be use as a natural anti bacterial, salt water can use for washing veggie & fruits, for gargle when we have sore throat or tooth ache. As Christians, when we are acting different with the indifferent world, our sympathy and care can give a good taste in other's people's life
	Jesus’ second metaphor, about light, issues much the same call as the first.
	Light drives our darkness .
	- A city light drew people from frightening danger
	As we hold our light higher for Jesus, more and more people will run to him for eternal life.
	We can hide our light with a covering: something that doesn't allow light of Jesus within us to shine. But we are called to let light shine so that everyone around us can see it. Finally, we are not called to shine for our own benefit. Rather, our purpose to praise Jesus, the light of the world.
