SALT & LIGHT WITH HONOR: “Being exiles does not mean being cynical. It does not mean being indifferent or uninvolved. The salt of the earth does not mock rotting meat. Where it can, it saves and seasons. And where it can’t, it weeps. And the light of the world does not withdraw, saying “good riddance” to godless darkness. It labors to illuminate. But not dominate.” ~John Piper Is my point of view offered with respect to those who disagree? Do I assume the best of those who are my political opposites? Does it look like I am raging against injustice or against people made in God’s image? Am I showing honor when reviled or slandered? For the Christian, it’s not about winning a culture war. We win through how we engage our neighbors. His honor should be on full display… even on Facebook. May our speech be with grace seasoned with salt.
