To
what do you give your time, money and attention?
What
do you value above the God of Heaven,
As
expressed by what you place above His commands?
That
is your “god,” or “god's” as the case may be.
The
ancients fashioned their “god(s)” out of wood
And other form-able materials and
we consider them to be primitive.
Today,
we have more sophisticated ways of fashioning “god(s),”
But
the spiritual result is the same, Eternal Death.
The
culture we live in fashions god(s) for us.
The
media is a primary fashioner and exponent of “god(s)” for us
And
we can accept anyone or any thing we choose.
We
can choose from a menu of “gods” like we choose food at a
restaurant.
We
can have leader “gods,” intellectual “gods,” science “gods,”
Psychology “gods,” ecology
“gods,” education “gods,” technology “gods,”
Movie star,
“gods,” sports
star, sport team “gods,” pornography “gods,”
Drug “gods,”
sexuality “gods,” boy
friend, girl friend “gods,” etc.;
Anything
or anyone we place above the God of Heaven and His commands.
We
can make a “god(s)” of our own fashioning; hobbies, special
interests;
We
can make a “god” out one of the many false religions;
Which
is any religion but faith in Christ Jesus as Scripture commands.
Or,
we can make ourselves a “god” like Satan did.
Who
or what has fashioned your “god?”
If
your God is the God of Scripture, there is no fashioning to be done.
If
your “god” is any other “god” you have done the fashioning,
Or
the fashioning has been done for you.
Today, people have chosen a multitude of “gods.”
Even
those who claim the name of Christ, often have “other” “gods;”
Gods
to whom they give more of their time, money and attention to,
Than
they give to Christ Jesus and His Word.
This
should not be surprising in a world ruled by Satan.
Every
person is born into DECEPTION.
Unless
they respond to the voice of God they remain DECEIVED.
For
those who have made a confession of faith in Christ Jesus,
Satan
and his demons are constantly trying to distract
Them
to anything but their faith in God.
There
is a false doctrine in the Church of God
That
says the if you make a confession of faith in Christ
At
some point in your life, you are “saved,” eternally. This is a
LIE!
Those
who make confessions of faith are “saved”, that is forgiven;
However,
if then, they do not walk in the Light of Christ,
If
they do not make Christ Jesus Lord of their lives,
Their
confession is rendered meaningless.
Christ
Jesus in writing to the Seven Churches
Did not mention the word
“saved.”
He
said it was only those who OVERCAME, that He would receive.
Many
who are “saved” go on to receive one or more
Of
the many “gods” the world puts forth,
Or
they create their own “gods.”
When
they do this, those worthless thing(s), their “god(s),”
Are
worthless to them in the END;
And
they themselves are rendered worthless
When
they stand before the Living God.
Today,
there are many gospels being preached,
But
only the gospel of Christ, is the One True Gospel.
Today,
many preachers, preach only what itching ears want to hear;
Only
what is “positive,” and what will bring large audiences to them.
They
do not mention the “bad news,” that every person is born
condemned;
That
faith in Christ and walking in the Light of Christ is the only WAY
Out
of this condemnation.
For
them, what they preach, is simply a better alternative,
Not
the NARROW WAY, the crucial choice, the life and death choice
Taught
by Christ Jesus.
In
contrast, the Gospel of Christ is embodied in ALL He taught.
Christ
taught a NARROW WAY that only a few find.
A
Christian must embrace ALL that Christ Jesus taught to belong to Him.
For
a Christian there is only One Teacher, Christ Jesus.
A
partial gospel is a partial truth, not the whole TRUTH of Christ
Jesus.
A
partial truth opens the door to other “gods.”
I
pray that all who read this
Are committed to the One True God, Christ Jesus;
That
they embrace the whole TRUTH of Christ; the NARROW WAY;
The
Glorious WAY;
The
only WAY to righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;
The
only WAY to Eternal LIFE, and the Glory of Heaven.
Today,
the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America
is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom
come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
