Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. (KJV) ( Matthew 5:13 )
We know that salt is used as a preservative to keep food for longer than it normally would. If it loses its use the salt will be thrown out with the trash. Although it isn't easy to imagine how salt loses its saltiness, in the context is of a Christian isn't hard to see how a Child of God his/her flavor. When he/she tries to blend in with the world, the essence of a Christian is being trashed by they themselves. It is important to not loose the flavour of Christ for he expects us to go from salvation to sanctification and finally to glorification! Let it always be our prayer to have His flavour and willingly do our best to keep our Saviour's flavour! If we have failed let us take a moment to ask God for forgiveness and return to Him!
