  1. Hebrews 4:12:

Manifesting God’s Glory: A Choice Between Power and Passivity

  The Bible teaches that believers are the salt of the earth —a vital force meant to preserve, influence, and illuminate the world. Jesus warns in Matthew 5:13 : "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot."

This principle is reinforced throughout Scripture, where we see those who boldly displayed God’s power and those who hid away in fear or compromise .
