Acts 4:18-20 – 18Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19But Peter and John replied, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God. 20For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
This scripture really touched me as I read it recently. In today’s world and the way our country is going, you are going to have to be strong in your faith. You are going to be challenged to stop believing the way you are biblically supposed to. It is already happening in the world and in the US.
The pressure of the world’s thinking has already made its way into many of our nation’s pulpits. It’s no secret to those who believe God’s Word is truth, that God doesn’t think the same way as man.
Soon the biggest crime concerning religion will be intolerance. This is already happening in the media. It is the war cry for many religious movements that believe all roads lead to God.
However, that’s not what God says in the Bible. There is only one way to God the Father and that is through Jesus, His only begotten Son. We all know as Christians that a rekindled relationship with our Creator is not religion.
As we move forward don’t get swept away in the tide of the world. It says in the last days some shall fall away.
1 Timothy 4:1 – 1The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
Folks, this abandoning isn’t a reference to non-believers. This abandoning is a reference to those who believe they are serving God.
I am not one of those people who ignore grace. Grace is what we are saved by. I am not one of those people who sets a bar up high and believes you must be great or you will fail. I’m just here out of love and obedience to God my Father and his Son my King and Savior, to remind you what the scriptures are telling us. I am praying, pleading, begging, whatever. Please just get into the Word of God and make Him number one in your life. Make Him your first love. Recognize the time your living in and don’t miss it like those who weren’t looking for him in his first coming. There is a ton more about His second coming and there is not going to be any excuses.
All you must do is make Him your first love and seek! You will find!
