About this listen
In the second installment of "The Sermon for the Mounted," we continue through Matthew 5 to uncover what Jesus really meant when He called His followers the "salt of the earth" and the "light of the world."
We live in a "lazy-boy world" where salt is just a cheap condiment, but in Jesus' day, it was essential for survival. This episode challenges us to check our own "flavor"—are you truly salty, or are you a "stud horse" that turned out to be a 2x4? We discuss the non-negotiable nature of identity in Christ, why "hiding your light" under a basket is not an option for the believer, and how your good deeds are actually just about making God look good to the people in your own house.
Key Topics Covered:
Salt in a Lazy-Boy World: Rediscovering the immense value and preserving power of the believer.
The Authenticity Test: You are either salt or you aren't—you can't buy a stud horse and accept a 2x4.
Sheep vs. Goats: The gravity of Jesus' separation of the "salty" from the "unsalty."
Light of the World: Why your light is meant for your "house" (family, work, friends) first.
Good Deeds: It's not about saving yourself; it's about showing God's glory.
