The Salt

it's a common connection that lies between each of us here in this room and perhaps those that are online participating in this service when i speak of a desire to want to be a part of the church i know that there is a connection that comes with that desire there's a connection that declares that we want to live our lives according to the word of god we want more than anything to make heaven our eternal home somebody say heaven heaven is our eternal home that desire that want is so strong that it causes us to make decisions every day that make us walk the road that jesus has laid before us we get up in the morning and we pray and we get in his word somebody say amen we look at our fellow man with eyes of concern and eyes of compassion we hear what those around us say with ears of righteousness and filters of the spirit of god every step that we take we include a time of thought that makes us want to live the will of god in our lives and not just misstep or trip up but also have a connection to where we can get up if we fall somebody say amen we're all human we already know that we are capable well capable of mistakes and failing but it is it is with a great purpose that we want to do what is right in the eyes of god we all face the struggle every day we want to be found righteous and doing what god wants us to do how many want to be found doing the will of god that is why you do what you do what we have come to discover is that the challenges and the difficulties that we work through every day they are making us stronger they are making us more resilient hear me we are growing we are maturing we are learning the weaknesses that we have and we're working on those but we are also seeing the strengths that we possess and we are building upon those i realize that much of the time there is no we really don't give a lot of thought to our actions we simply have actions that we follow because of the influence of the holy ghost and the spirit of god that's in our lives in fact it may even seem to be elementary but the life of a christian is being simply christ-like that was revelation to someone the way you talk your speech your mannerisms the way you carry yourself the thought process that you think things through your morals your ethical ways all of these points they they allow us to know more and more that god is actually working in our lives and we are becoming what he wants us to be man woman child doesn't matter you can be called christ like a christian look at your neighbor and say are you a christian but hear what i'm saying today on this sunday afternoon in an ever increasing atmosphere of malice and struggle in our world we can even as the church begin to feel as if we have possibly lost our way maybe we have fallen into the traps of the enemy and we can feel like we are losing out our society has so many problems with just understanding rights and wrong or at least what what we see and what we participate in we understand that there are times that all we're simply trying to do is survive and so therefore we're making choices but the facts of the negative and the things going on outside in the world if you will those effects are very staggering the examples i will give you are very very familiar to all of us that live in shoe leather on planet earth drug use abortions open sexual references experimental activities that have the unknown outcomes rebellion acts against humanity a love for themselves narcissism feeling like they're the number one and nobody else matters they're against laws and authority and there's a struggle in our present world that can make us sometimes in the church in the family of god christ like people it can make you feel as if the whole world has simply gone crazy we as christians we can feel the demise and we can't even wonder if god even cares or if he's even listening maybe to our prayers is anybody here praying against the sin that is enveloping our world and many times we look at it and we wonder god can't you just step in and fix all of this only to find out that the struggle continues why are things getting crazier by the minute i want to help somebody today under the sound of my voice there there's a reference to this battle this this chore this struggle and it's it's written by somebody that we all esteem to be very high and that is a letter that paul wrote in romans chapter number seven let me read to you verse number 14 for we know here what i'm saying we know that the law is spiritual but i am carnal sold under sin for that which i do i allow not for what i would that i do that do i not but what i hate that do i stay with me if then i do that which i would not i consent unto the law that it is good now then it is no more i that do it but sin that dwelleth in me paul told he told them he said for i know that in me that is in my flesh dwelleth no good thing for to will is present with me but how to perform that which is good i find not for the good that i would i do not but the evil which i would not that i do stay with me now if i do that i would not it is no more i that do it but sin that dwelleth in me 21 says i find then a law that when i would do good evil is present with me for i delight in the law of god after the inward man but i see another law in my members warring against the law of my mind bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members 24 o wretched man that i am who shall deliver me from the body of this death i thank god through jesus christ our lord so then with the mind i myself serve the law of god but with the flesh the law of sin openly we read this and i know every young person every child you you didn't dare go to this verse of scripture and try to quote this against your parents or against the leadership in your life because you have no idea what you just said some of y'all are sitting there when i read it going and it's the writer paul that wrote this this is translated imagine what it was in the original i don't really know how to backspace almost lunch time i'll be right there y'all y'all give me a minute i'm just gonna put this down that way kind of all right we go paul was very open very frank very very very open with the romans what i just read can seem like a dilemma and a struggle inside and out so the law is a spiritual one but i'm in flesh what i do i'm sure that that i didn't want to do it what i want to do i have a hard time doing that in fact i do what i know i should hate and sin in me causes me to do things contrary to what my spirit man desires for me to do and the good that i know that i should do i don't do it even though i know i should do it and sin causes me to do wrong the war in the mind is always that i desire to be free from the influence of the sin that is trying to overshadow me he even refers to himself wretched man who will deliver me from the bad the negative that constantly works against the good that i know that i should be doing and what paul was telling the church in rome if you don't get jesus in your life you're gonna have this constant battle between wanting to do right and not able to do it because you're feeding the wrong one the struggle the fight it's a continuous conflict but i've come to tell somebody today that the fight is well worth fighting jesus has paid the great price for the victory in which you are in the middle of today he shed his blood for the purpose of holding you accountable to what his sacrifice is the dying on the cross hear me it was sufficient to wash away your sins i come to tell somebody in this hour the plan that was established from the beginning was the one that there would be victory and deliverance for humanity why because from the foundation of the world there was a spotless lamb that would step into the struggle into the confusion into the chaos into the question and that love story of jesus christ giving his life for you and i hear me regardless of what's transpiring in our world we can still be christ-like we can still be christians as we sit here in this room or as you're sitting in front of your screen right now wherever it is we are faced with a strong dilemma of trying to move forward and trying not to shift backwards trying to ever move forward closer to god and realizing the struggle is there i'm not sure about you but i'm going to be very honest with you i want to be victorious over the things of my past and i desire to live a life that is full of joy and peace i want to follow the words of the master and i want to make it to heaven my eternal home one day in spite of all the struggles here on earth but the question is how do we accomplish that task is there anybody here full of the holy ghost throw your hand in the air wave it wave it wave it so why is there still a struggle even though the holy ghost is in you even though the spirit of god is in you how do you accomplish the task how do you get from here to there and not allow the stuff and the things and the junk of this present chaotic world pull you down look at what jesus says to his followers in matthew chapter number 5 verse number 13 ye are the salt of the earth but if the salt have lost it say his savor wherewith shall it be salted it is tends forth good for nothing but to be cast out and to be trodden under the foot of men listen to me if you are a follower the scripture tells us completely that these disciples were following after jesus this comes there on the sermon on the mount you got to understand that when jesus speaks to them if you're following him he calls you salt of course we understand that salt has many qualities and it has has many things that we could speak about for an example saul is a preserver everybody say a preserver yeah salt is a cleanser they say it's a cleanser everybody say salt is flavor everybody say flavor yes salt is useful in so many ways salt can also be seen as a very powerful object and it can be used with so many capacities so we might seem to understand that when jesus refers to the and uses the terminology salt we can then begin to say well then he wants us to be the preserver of the world or he wants us to be this for the world or he wants us to be that for the world but then he when he uses them that example then he says if you're you ever stop being salt then the only thing you're good for is to be cast out trodden under the foot of man does anybody understand what that means allow me to explain what the lord jesus christ did for us is he saves us from our past sins and anything that we could do in the future as long as we stay under the blood somebody say the blood the blood of jesus is what cleanses and keeps us the fact of the matter though is this is there a way that salt could ever stop being called salt could ever stop being salt is there a way that salt or what we're talking about what jesus spoke of is there a way that the salt can be decided is no longer useful for what it was purposed to use the fact is the very simplicity of salt composite is very easy to understand because it's just two chemicals yet to understand the effect that it has we have to know that when jesus states to the followers of that that y'all stay with me for a moment he was telling them you're blessed you're blessed you're blessed you're blessed you're blessed you're blessed but you're the salt of the earth in 2021 i believe more than ever before that as the church as followers of jesus we must truly understand the power of that spoken word you are salt of the earth if we ever get to a place that we begin to think that we're no longer the salt of then we will become what is called useless and simply used to be cast on the ground trodden under foot of man if you will but i've come to help somebody understand that if you'll walk with jesus if you'll talk with jesus if you'll stay connected to jesus you can still be the salter and if the salt does its job and it preserves and it keeps and it does what it's supposed to do regardless of what's going on in our crazy chaotic world we can still stand up and say we're the salt we're the salt i wish you'd look at your neighbor and ask them are you salt i didn't say asking if they're salty are you salt stay with me stay with me believe it or not we are headed somewhere today there's an explanation that comes hear it from the old testament again if you ever study the new testament you'll find that the the examples and the references and the prophetics that's fulfilled it always goes back brother gibson to the old stuff and that's the coolest thing for those who say the old testament has no longer a place in our world i'm feel so bad for them sister renee they need to get in there and get those stories out of there and figure out why the new testament guys referred to him hang on to me for a moment in the book of judges there's a story i won't read at all but i simply want to read a verse of scripture to you in judges chapter number 9 verse number 45 and abimelech fought against the city all that day and he took the city and slew the people that were therein and beat down the city hear this and sowed it with salt abimelech king of judah for season so much can be said of the activities that went on when he was the king man there was up people there was division in the account that you can reference on your own time go back and read judges 9 read judges 8 9 10 you're going to find some very interesting accounts here but in this particular one in judges there's a group of people that have tried to put their motive together and to try to come together and overthrow king abimelech and in the process of this insurrection of this battle the king was made privy to the struggle and the the story tells us here that in this city he went outside the city and he laid on the ground and he waited for those deceivers who were going to come out and try to kill him and his men the bible tells us in the story that the portion of men that were trying to overthrow them came out and stood at the gate of the city to venture out and to see what was going on because somebody made a reference there that there's things going on out in the fields and we can't really see them and so this group comes to the gate of the city and looking out uh malik is there with his men and the bible says this group of men come up out of this field and they begin to come against the city and everybody's standing looking who was this i don't understand who are these folks what are they doing here why are they in this position what are they doing and lo and behold abimelech comes with his men and the bible says that they destroyed the challengers to the throne that the abimelech and his men went against them and killed both men and women why because when that struggle happened abimelech said nobody can overthrow the king if they want to try so be it but god is on my side now you need to understand something about this story according to the story in judges the city that we're speaking of is the city of shechem and when abimelech killed all the men and the women of the city because of their desire to to try to destroy him he had men to take salt and throw it on the ground around that city and handfuls of salt were thrown out and trotting under the foot of man y'all hang on to me the action served the purpose of the salt dissolving in the soil and filtering into it and that sodium chloride compound in the soil would cause no vegetation to grow the grass and the flowers and the pretty would stop and the earth would no longer produce grass and flowers until the time that the chemicals had a chance to wash out of the soil and to cleanse itself hear me the purpose of the salt thrown on the ground was to destroy any life that could grow up out of the ground there so i am convinced because jesus understood it that in matthew when jesus accounts that you're the salt of the earth but if you lose your purpose you'll be cast to the ground and nothing good will grow nothing pop nothing great will come of it you better let salt be used for what its purpose for you can't allow the stuff in the world to take away the flavor of the spirit of a god that said you're the church i am the one who bought you i went to a cross to wash away your sin if we ever as apostolics get to the place where we're no longer needed the lord god himself said it i'll throw you to the ground and it will be desolate now i'm not going to point nothing i'm not going to claim nothing i'm not going to put a board up here with all examples but i come to tell you there's a whole lot of people in two thousand i feel my help coming in 2021 they're calling themselves christians they're calling themselves christ-like the fact of the matter is they're no longer savory in the spirit therefore they've been tossed to the ground and the world itself is stepping upon them there's no ability for them to grow and be fruitful hear me now they might have big buildings they might have great followings they may have incredible musicians and singers but the anointing and the unction of the oil of god is not upon them therefore they have been cast down and they're now trodden nothing good is going to grow there but oh if we can understand that if the spirit of god is within us and we're walking in the faith of the gospel of christ there will be life and things will grow hang on to me the my proper response to all of this that's going on today is very simple i want to be used in my generation in my time on earth for the glory of the lord and if i ever stop that i already know per the word of the lord i will be cast down and i will be useless to the master i want to be used to bring honor to him when jesus calls the church the followers that believe when he calls them salt listen that salt already has the capacity of being a great force with two things you and jesus if things are happening in your life and you feel like you have lost your savior your flavor your ability to make a difference i can promise you jesus is not your problem and if there's only two items in this evidently it's something with us hang on to me hold on to me don't turn me loose yet we have been praying and we have been fasting in this 21 days of prayer and purpose the entire reason for the challenge is more than just something to do as a body of believers but rather i desire for all of us to be useful in the hands of king jesus our world is in a bad state of mind and right now our world needs jesus i don't want to be the force that stops growth's potential rather i want to be of the blessed ones that says god help me do what i'm supposed to do and in order for me to maintain that position in where jesus has placed the church i've got to keep praying i've got to keep knowing jesus i've got to keep going into his word i've got to continue praying for my neighbor and my loved one i got to keep but hear me there's enough negative out there it's about to destroy half the body if it'll be allowed but i refuse to believe the lie of the enemy i don't care what this world says hear what i'm saying i might get chastised for saying it but i'll say it it don't matter what executive order is placed here or there i know the one who puts a king in his place and brings kingdoms to their knees and i choose to believe in the only saving name of jesus i'm not about to lose my savior i'm not about to lose my purpose i'm a blood-bought child of god full of the holy ghost and fire understanding that the power of the cross is greater than the power of the pen therefore i'm going to preach it like i never have i'm gonna believe it like i never have i'm fasting and believing god's putting it in you too why because this world is not our home we're simply passing through it if the salt has lost its savor it's got no place this world needs jesus this world needs jesus notice brother duran which accompanies once the king abimelech had his men to sow salt on the ground it was no longer good no longer useful until it had a time to be cleansed y'all stay with pastor in the gospel of john there's there's a story that he writes here on on a journey that jesus was walking with his disciples his followers the bible says early on in the book of john jesus tells his followers i've got to go to samaria because at samaria there's something there that i that i need to accomplish there is a well there in samaria known as jacob's well a well that i need to get to even the followers of jesus looked at him and said man we can't go and got time for we need to get on no no no no no no no no we need to go to samaria i got a visit there it is in that place that we know the story in john that jesus stopped and spoke to the samaritan woman and she looks at him and she says we have the mountain you don't even have anything to draw with and he begins to read her mail if you will and she's standing there by this well the samaritans we know according to history were considered to be dogs nobody wants them half breeds outcasts a whole group that had received a curse sometime in the past brother gibson and they carried that their whole lives it was in their generations before grandparents parents they knew we're we're samaritans we we have no dealings with the jews we don't they don't let us in so we don't let them in i don't know if anybody recognizes this but that well that jesus went to was actually in what was used to be called check him and when jesus walked to that well he knew there's been all kind of stuff happen before here but i come in to clean the ground up it was shechem where abimelech was that he threw the salt on the ground it's no longer useful but if you'll ever get jesus on the scene he'll speak to it he'll say it to it i know but if you only knew who was asking you for a drink you'd be asking me because i have a rivers of living well you'll drink from it and you'll never thirst again you'll pull from him and your life will be completely whole i've come to tell somebody the revival that broke out in that land was because jesus went by there he knew what history was he knew what was done before but when he walked in there and checked him one more time he knew if i get in the scene if i get on the place then things can change and be altered i come to tell somebody in this 21 days you better know chattanooga is ready for revival why because a church is praying in the midst of all the questions in the midst of all the chaos there's a church a body of believers that's bombarding the gates of hell rattling the chains saying you better let that backslider go devil you better turn that family loose up you better know we're coming in the name of the lord god why because if we ever get jesus in the house there is no telling what will happen you are the salt you are the salt you are the salt you are the salt you are the salt you are the salt and if the salt is doing what it's supposed to do it can be the preservation of our city stand with me please you are the salt now i realize i'm as guilty as anyone man what is wrong with america what in the world going on this ain't right i've said it before my my dad would roll over if he knew what was transpiring in this world today that's how murk and my dad was my grandfather with a third grade education he would be having a cow right now what you mean what you mean you better not come to me looking like that with that attitude pick your pants up comb your hair have a little respect for yourself that ain't political that's just good common sense listen to me and you and i in the church under the name of jesus by the cross of calvary we can begin to shake and shame oh god oh i don't know what to do lord if i can just sneak into the church acting like we're behind the iron curtain or something i'll just get in here and be quiet i'm a gideon all of a sudden we still live in the united states hear what i'm saying they may not like it but they're not saying hey i'm i'm walking minding my own business you know i threw food city the other night i just needed avocados and onion i was making a guac i'm walking along down the aisle this old fella there he's in my way i'm just trying to look around him i can just get that i can go i'll get this mask off he's staying in my way i'm sorry i'm in your way ain't my wedding right there right there okay boy it's a crazy world we're living in yes sir yeah i know i don't you know what do you think okay he's talking i'm just wanting to get my stuff out of my arms is that human enough i got guac waiting at home the only thing i could say says katie man i said buddy it's a great day to know jesus yes well you know that's right i know him now i'm stuck i shift the load i said how do you know him he said buddy one time i was working at a carpet mill and the boss was coming and i'd done messed up and that two thousand pound roll of carpet had shifted and it was stopping the line and i looked up across the way he's coming mad anger on his face and i said lord you're gonna have to help me fix this so i don't get fired he said i reached down the lord said pick it up i put my hand on and i lifted that two thousand pound and i set it right in this place and put it down the guy came over and said thank you for fixing that walked away and i looked up at heaven said how in the world did that happen and the lord said i told you if you'll ask and not ask a miss i'll move well now i've got my arms full and i can't leave i said i know god will do he said buddy i could tell you time and again god has come through god has provided everybody i was going to share my testimony but i had no room to breathe he was all there you know what i'm saying don't hit me don't pray for me you know is human enough if i walk away the guy finishes he goes that way i go this way and i'm like lord if i missed an opportunity i'm sorry but i am so encouraged because the world would have us to say nobody's reaching out but as soon as i said you better know jesus he lit up i'm walking down the aisle now sister nate is trying to get to the register and he rounds the corner hey breaks reached in his pocket he pulled out a penny and handed it to me one of those pennies has a cross punched out of it here i want to give you that lord told me to give it to you i said thank you that's a cross he said that's the cross of jesus i said that's all what we need he said but let me tell you so i got to go here now listen to pastor listen to me a minute y'all have stories just like that here we are in this crazy mixed up chaotic world and all what they want us to think out there is that this that and and this guy i don't know what church doesn't matter religion i don't care it don't matter only thing i know is in the middle of food city he's about to have church and i'm standing there saying lord i love walking i love you what i'm telling you is this if anybody looks at you and says you know you can't pray in school you better back up hollow loud as you can in the name of jesus i know that i can't why because i am salt i'm not about to let go of the savor i'm not about to turn loose and allow to be trodden under the foot and let this city die no i want revival in chattanooga i want the altar full of people seeking the power of god i want the name of jesus to be known from every side of this city your salt i wish you turned the three people close to you as loud as you can tell them say you are salt tell them you are salt you are salt you are salt you can't lose it you've got to stay connected you've got to stay connected you have got to stay plugged into the word allowing the power of the spirit of god to work in your life now listen to me carefully i realize it's sunday it's 1 23 for those clock watchers that's why we don't put the clock up there they somehow put it there so i'll stay on time i don't understand but some of you in this last 14 days of our 21 days we have been disgusted and discouraged by things going on in our world and we wonder where in the world is god i'll tell you where god is he's where he's always been high and lifted up he's still omnipotent he's still omniscient and he's still omnipresent nobody has the authority to take him away from that what i want to know is this are you still salt are you still the preserver listen some of your jobs your company should have already closed and locked their doors and went out but in this pandemic you're still working in fact they gave you a raise in fact they're saying to you i don't know why we let everybody go but you god is providing for you in the middle of this you ought to be saying i don't know what's going to happen next but instead you're still giving and tithe you're still giving an offering you're still believing lord god's going to do something why because you realize that nothing in this world is worth separating you from that place where we're headed heaven this altar right now is open and what i want to ask is is there somebody here that's willing to say lord today i just need an encouragement from you i just need a little strength i need lord your breath one more time to come into my life and to reassure and let me know beyond the shadow of a doubt i am still salt i
