YOU WERE BORN TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

“You are the salt of the earth … You are the light of the world.” ~ Jesus

1. We’ve Got To Have Value To Give Value

Matthew 5:13 – [Jesus says] You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

2. We’ve Got To Have Flavor To Give Flavor

Job 6:6 - Can flavorless food be eaten without salt?

Colossians 4:5-6 - Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

3. We’ve Got To Have Warmth To Give Warmth

Matthew 5:14 - You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

4. We’ve Got To See To Give Sight

John 8:12 - Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

Matthew 5:15 - Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
