Luke 14:34-35 Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his flavor, with which shall it be seasoned?… William Smith, a Primitive Methodist local preacher, had a business letter shown to him from a manufacturer of cloth. The concluding paragraph was a rather high-flown rhapsody about revivals, and some sermon that had been to him (as he said) "wines on the lees." His pair of eyes keenly watched the reader of the letter, to whom he said, when the reading was concluded, "What do you think of that?" Answer: "I don't think I should have written the last paragraph." Response: "I should think not; I only wish the fellow would put his religion into his cloth instead of his invoices." Parallel Verses KJV: Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?WEB: Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it? |
