Jesus said that salt is good. Never felt the need to look into it further.
luke 17:32...........
“If the salt loses its flavor....”
Would Jesus have known it was sodium chloride?
King James 2000 Bible
You are the salt of the earth: but if the salt has lost its savor, how shall it be salted? it is thereafter good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Thank-you for the Gospel reference.
