Salt of the Earth
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In his message, Steve Gregg discusses the significance of Christians being called the "salt of the earth" by Jesus in the Bible. He explains that Christianity has a unique moral genius that can combat corruption in society and that it is up to believers to exercise moral control in their communities. While the influence of Christianity can transform societies for the better and inspire care for the vulnerable, Christians should focus on living as followers of Jesus and spreading Christianity to produce a good society and protect the innocent.
