Colossians 4:5-6
We see a bit of this in Colossians 4. So let us go back there, where Paul actually uses salt in this way, which gives it actually an edge on the preservation one. Preservation by salt is not used in the Bible, but at least flavor of salt is.
As I said, the Bible includes this interpretation of salt as adding flavor and seasoning to a wicked world. Our conduct here, specifically our speech, makes a witness for God by the way we live and speak in a godly, gracious way. Is this what Christ meant when He said that? "Be the salt of the earth, be the flavor of the earth, be the seasoning of the earth, be the spice of the earth." Ah, perhaps. But I do not want to say this is the one. Because salt has other possible metaphorical interpretations. We have only just started.
