Mr 9:49 "For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. 50 "Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another." (NKJV)
The verses before are if your hand offend you, cut it off...if your eye offend you, pluck it out...
I'm just not following the sacrifice seasoned with salt, and have peace with one another connection. Anyone have insight on this passage?
Mandy, I tried to look this up in the greek but salt I was unable to find it here at home. (I can look it up at church later) Anyway..this is what I found online and makes sense to me..Maybe it will help. It sounds like you have already figured it out by what you said yesterday..about forgiveness. This is by far the hardest part of being a christian. Hope this helps..
Like the sacrifices, we must be salted with salt; our corrupt affections must be subdued and mortified by the Holy Spirit. Those that have the salt of grace, must show they have a living principle of grace in their hearts, which works out corrupt dispositions in the soul that would offend God, or our own consciences
Ps 27:4 One thing I have desired from the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to pray in His temple.(MKJV)
