Matt. 6:24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
Today, likely as always, there are to many two faced Christians in the Churches and on the web. Jesus came to call out a people to worship the Father and for no other reason. God created man to fellowship with and we find this is the Creation Story when God walked in the cool of the evening with Adam. This one thing is also what Jesus came to restore.
But we are not Adam, we wear clothes, shoes and some of us wear hats today. But just as Adam was available to God any day at any time, so must we be. God has not, anywhere in the sixty-six books that compose the Bible, called us to worship Him, just one day a week. Mark 12:30 "And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength." Today the Worship Services are filled with folks calling the name of the Christ for their own that believe in and promote abortion, theft, robbery, breaking and entering and anything up to and including rape and murder, just as long as you go to Church on Sunday.
That is not Christianity, that is religion and Jesus did not come to set one more religion into place, He came to die for the sins I and you have committed, to pay the debt we owe God that we will be allowed to stand right there, at the foot of God’s Throne without the fear of our transgressions. Today and from the time just after Jesus rose into Heaven, the true Christian is filled with the Holy Spirit.
This is not an option, it is a fact and no Holy Spirit to walk you through this life and you are not saved, period! In 1Thes 5:19 we see that we can quench the Spirit because as followers of God, that Spirit is part of the package that comes with salvation but I can tell you, you do not want to do that, it does not please the Father and it is a frightful thing to find oneself in the hands of an angry God.
Once you are saved, God goes everywhere you go and you must remember that. If you go to a bar, God is there with you. If you go to the XXX Movies, God is there with you. When you love your kids and your wife, God is there with you. Everything you do, say, or think, God is there with you. When I walked out of the World, I walked out on all of it and I do my best never to forget who it is that is guiding me on this journey.
Do you?
