Summary

In this next episode of the Sermon on the Mount, we start with two common pictures we're all familiar with from everyday life. No matter your location in the world—you know what salt and light are. We are to be salt, and we are to be light or better to state as the scripture states - we ARE salt, and we ARE light. We're going to take these one at a time, so today, we're just working through Matthew 5:13: "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 HELPFUL LINKS: Head over to ThankfulHomemaker.com for full show notes.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Thankful Homemaker Podcast, a podcast to be an encouragement and blessing
0:11.7	to each other and the role God has called us to as women.
0:15.1	I'm so thankful you stopped by, so grab yourself a coffee or tea and sit with me a bit
0:20.5	as we talk about how God's Word impacts every area of our lives as Christian women.

0:39.7	In last month, we finished our time in the Beatitudes, so we were in Matthew, chapter 5, we ended
0:46.9	there as we worked through Matthew, chapter 5, verses 10 through 12, and we were working
0:51.6	through in that episode about being persecuted for righteousness' sake.
0:56.1	We talked about how there's conflict between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of this
1:00.7	world, and that the world will be in opposition to those in Christ, and those in Christ will

1:07.5	There isn't much tolerance in the world for those who profess Christ and live out their

1:15.6	Again, those who are poor in spirit, mourn over their sin, are meek, hungering and thirsting
1:21.9	for righteousness, merciful, seeking purity and heart.
1:26.8	They will be different from the world, and those in the world, those that are void of Christ,
1:33.2	enemies of the cross, they may see them as a threat.
1:37.3	So we know what the characteristics of those in the kingdom are.
1:42.4	But how do we live that out in our day-to-day lives?
1:45.3	This is the next part of our time in the Sermon, and we start with two very common pictures
