Dr. Phil Wilkes, 1 Timothy 4:12
A by product of your relationship with Christ is you become a preservative in a world that is disoriented to the ways of God and is decaying. Preservatives help food to not spoil. Preservatives prevent decay. As you walk with Christ you become a preservative in the world. Jesus talked about how salt can add flavor to food but also salt preserves food.
So how do you make a difference in our world that is disoriented to God and is decaying? What can Christ do in you that makes you a preservative in your family, with your friends and in our society? Your faith in Christ lived out in relationships you have with others can make a difference. Paul encourages Timothy to set an example for others in his speech, life, loving others, faith in God and purity.
