"Our being salty is a manifestation of Christian character. It is a manifestation of our Christian virtue, our walking in righteousness, our bearing the fruit of the Spirit, our abstaining from the things of this world, our showing mercy to those who need mercy, and our proclaiming God’s justice. Our holy speech and conduct (even toward lawless governments) should be an indication to nonbelievers in our spheres of influence that we are different. It should be such that nonbelievers may even behave differently around us because they know we are servants of the God they are rebelling against. We are agitators in that sense, in a good sense."
Quote taken from article "Christian, You are the Salt of the Earth", by Justin Edwards of AIRO
