For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. 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.
Jesus likes spice. He keeps His people well-seasoned. He infuses fire into every disciple and flavors His friends with saltiness. He marinates His people in heat in order to draw out the sweet.
Those who are salt shakers sow seeds of peace when things get distasteful. If you have salt in yourself, you will have peace with others, but those who are bland on the inside will have belligerence with others.
Fire and salt both change the nature of that to which they are applied. They purify and preserve a person and their relationships. When you have heat, you regulate the temperature of the room. When you have salt, you improve everyone's tastes.
