“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. (‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭13‬ ESV)

“”You are the salt of the world”–not the sugar candy; something the world will spit out–not swallow.”

Charles H. Spurgeon

“It is the Spirit who quickens; the flesh profits nothing.” John 6:63
We then have the quickening of the Spirit we have:

  new thoughts, 

  new desires, 

  new hopes, 

  new fears,

How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? And what union can there be between God’s temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God.
