YOU ARE THE CHRIST
“All religions lead to God.” Baloney! That is one of the most ludicrous statements man can make. They can’t all lead to God because they contradict each other! This being the case, either they are all false or only one can be true. The wise individual will examine the claims, study the evidence, then make a sincere “head and heart” commitment.
DOGS AND MOTORCYCLES
The next time you are tempted to retreat from a problem, a spiritual conflict, a “Goliath” of some kind, stand your ground! Don’t be intimidated! Still, yourself in God’s presence, realizing that one with Him is a majority! He is there and will save you and strengthen you — count on it! That’s the promise Isaiah provides in 30:18: “Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion. For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him.”
CREATE A GODLY IMAGE
A most valuable lesson to learn from our predecessors is the importance of creating a godly image. Of this, Jesus Himself said, “You are the light of the world…let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14, 16).
TRUST IN THE SOVEREIGNTY OF GOD
When we say “God is sovereign,” we mean God controls every event, every outcome in history. Nothing escapes His notice or approval, and everything works for His own glory and purposes. This is clearly the psalmist’s understanding in Psalm 115:3: “Our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.”
