PRIVILEGE-ENTITLED-SELFISH

When one does not know sacrifice; when one does not know the seriousness of sin; then one does not know God...who He is or what He does.  What is not known or understood is challenged and too often changed to meet the changer's need.  What is needed is to trust and obey.

My thoughts are not your thoughts,
My ways are not your ways.
The heavens are high above the earth,
As My ways are above your ways
My thoughts above your thoughts,
Isaiah 55:8,9

God's words and ways cannot be deconstructed and reconstructed by humans.  
Only God can do that...Hebrews 8:13.
Only Jesus can do that..."But I say to you..."  Matthew 5

The Bible must stand as is, because the change of one thing will affect others and cause damage to all.  Eventually the Bible will fade away and not be necessary, just as the temple, sun, and moon will.  But until then it must remain in tact and continue it's duty.  Humans must not play God in any manner, with the Bible, with nature, or with one another.  God is above and we are below and we do not have the whole picture in view.

"To sum up the whole matter:
Fear God, and keep His commandments,
Since this is the whole duty of man.
For God will call all hidden deeds,
Good or bad to judgement.
Eccl 12:13,14

Humans cannot know enough to judge matters that could have eternal consequences.

WHERE WE WENT WRONG


There are more guru followers
Than God fearers
More satisfaction with second hand knowledge
Than seeking the Source
More fun facts
Than foundational Truths
More dining on leftovers
Than feasting on the pure Bread of Life
More hand-me-down rags
Than new cloaks of Righteousness
More group think
Than personal searching the Scriptures.
