11. Emphasize how one drop will spread till it spoils the
whole and how one little bad act may spread in the
heart of another till a whole life is spoiled.
12. Ask one of the youth to take that drop out of the
water; they will tell you it cannot be done. And so
with our influence, it cannot be undone.

You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its
saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer
good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled
underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on
a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp
and put it under a bowl.
