This series is a topical study of Ephesians 2:10 “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.” This session will dive deep into a very popular verse among Christians from Matthew 5:13 about being the “Salt of the Earth.” What is often missed in this teaching from Christ is the significance of salt to first century people. Why did Christ specifically use salt? Salt is incredibly important for trade, preserving foods and even creating medicines in our modern world. It had similar uses in the first century and was so valuable that it was used as a form of currency. There are a few different modern interpretations of this verse but what would have first century Christians understood? What is the significance of this teaching?
