BEING THE ANSWER

TEXT: Acts 2:1-17

INTRODUCTION

· "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 by men.

"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light

a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to

everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may

see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

Matt 5:13-16 (NIV)

1) THE HEART OF JESUS – Who We Are

· Salt represents the love of God.  You can taste it and it makes everything better. 

2) THE HANDS OF JESUS – How We Serve

· Light is the work of God in the world making him visible to all who are looking for him.

CONCLUSION

· Who we are and how we serve every week of our lives makes us a prophetic community

in the world—meaning God speaks through us in ways people can hear him!
