Leaving Babylon pg. 98-99: 

You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. (Matt. 5:13,14, and 16, nkjv)

God desires to build a nation of people who exude, discharge, release, or emit His love by revealing their identity in Christ daily. He wants a people who love beyond the barriers of nationality, race, status, money, etc. He wants a people who are about people. He wants a people who work and fight for the thing God loves passionately, which is humanity. God wants people who salt the earth with His love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Salt is a preservative. God’s salt preserves the spirit and saves the soul. God’s salt changes the flavor of this earth. In the midst of the turmoil, strife, and hatred, God’s salt can be tasted by the people of this prodigal planet.

Are you salty, or are you a bland seasoning on the shelf of Babylon? Babylon seeks to hide the salt of God or put the light of God’s children under a basket. She seeks to diffuse the flavor of the children of God as she brings confusion and division wherever she can—within our races, our families, and our nations. She divides us and conquers anywhere she is allowed. Her only loyalty is to evil. Whereas, God brings love and unity within everything that is touched by His Spirit through His Son, Jesus Christ! Are you touched by His Spirit? What flavor are you bringing to the earth?
