Leviticus 2:11-16: in context

The law of the grain offering includes two rules about what may and may not be added. No yeast or honey is to be burned in an offering made by fire to the LORD; those things, associated with fermentation and sweetness, are excluded from the altar. But salt is required in every offering: you shall not let the salt of the covenant of your God be missing from your grain offering; with all your offerings you shall offer salt.

The command about salt is the striking one: the salt of the covenant of your God must never be missing from the offering. Salt, in the ancient world, was a symbol of permanence, of preservation, of a bond that does not spoil; a covenant sealed with salt was a covenant meant to last. So God requires salt on every offering as a reminder that the relationship between him and his people is a covenant of salt, enduring, incorruptible, not something that ferments and sours like yeast or cloys and spoils like honey, but something preserved and lasting. And there is a forward reach in this. Jesus tells his followers that they are the salt of the earth, and calls them to have salt in themselves; the enduring, preserving quality that God required on the altar is now to mark the lives of his people. To be salt is to be a preserving, permanent presence, a covenant faithfulness that does not spoil. The offering was never to lack the salt of the covenant, and neither is the life offered to God; the relationship is meant to have the quality of salt, lasting, incorruptible, and preserving whatever it touches.

Does my relationship with God have the quality of salt, an enduring, incorruptible covenant faithfulness rather than something that ferments and sours, and am I a preserving, salt-like presence to the world around me?
