6-17-2014-THE SALT COVENANT
NUMBERS 18: 19 = ALL THE HEAVE OFFERINGS OF THE HOLY THINGS, WHICH THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL OFFER TO THE LORD, HAVE I GIVEN YOU, AND YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS WITH YOU, BY A STATUE FOREVER: IT IS A COVENANT OF SALT FOREVER BEFORE THE LORD TO YOU AND TO YOUR SEED WITH YOU.
"REMARKS"
IT APPEARS TO BE THE MEANING OF THIS SALT COVENANT IS THAT SALT WITH ITS POWER TO STRENGTHEN FOOD AND TO KEEP IT FROM DECAY, SYMBOLIZING THE UNBENDING TRUTHFULNESS OF THAT SELF SURRENDER TO THE LORD EMBODIED IN THE SACRIFICE, BY WHICH ALL IMPURITY AND HYPOCRISY IS REPELLED.(EXCERPT FROM UNGERS BIBLE DICTIONARY)
I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND WE SLAUGHTERED A HOG WE WOULD POUR SALT IN AND OVER IT TO PRESERVE IT. THIS SALT COVENANT IS AS SPOKEN BEFORE, SYMBOLIC OF PRESERVING SAINTS IN A WORLD OF DARKNESS AND EVIL BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. WE ARE TO BE SALT OF THE EARTH, WHEREIN WE PROMOTE AND PRESERVE RIGHTEOUSNESS AND DEFEAT THE WORKERS OF INIQUITY AND EVIL BY THE WORD OF YAH'WEH.
THE BIBLE CONTAINS MANY WONDERFUL STORIES OF YAH'WEHS, WISDOM AND HIS WAY OF DEALING WITH PEOPLE AND THOSE IN THE WORLD. READ MORE OF THE BIBLE, THE HOLY SCRIPTURES AND FIND A WORLD OF WISDOM AND BEAUTIFUL WORDS OF KNOWLEDGE.
