Subject: Is God so shortsighted? |
Bible Note: Hank I'm in agreement with you and Tim on this. The point I'm trying to make is God is a precise God. He told Moses to strike the rock once Moses hit it twice. God said use my fire, Korath’s group used their own. Little things almost insignificant when viewed in the grand scope of creation and salvation. However every important to God. In many cases the church today will take something that appears insignificant but nonetheless the word of God and say, "well that was for back then, we don't do that anymore so it doesn't pertain to us." I submit to you the same question I did to Tim. Could our minimization of scriptures, in aspects to dress, holding things holy, who is qualified to do what jobs, social customs, religious customs and etc. be the reason the church today isn’t having the effect on the world that the first, second, and third century church did? Something changed and I submit to you it wasn’t God. Isaiah 55:8-9 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," declares the LORD. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. Be blessed and be a blessing |
