Idols are Wonderful Until They Stop Blessing us!


Idol’s are wonderful until they stop blessing us! Admiration is a human

emotion that we all express which often becomes an Idol.


Idol’s are a life time of disappointments misplaced affections entrusted

to variations of shadows, here today gone tomorrow. The evil of

seeking human glory while thinking God is the same!

 

James. 1:10 and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower

in the grass, he will pass away.


James.1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down

from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning

shadow.


1 John 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

Due to others what you want them to do to you

November 27, 2024 | Unregistered CommenterColin Kemp

Truth is truth! It applies to all of us, no exception. The bible tells us the truth about our human nature under sin, it does not says because you read these words, problem fixed! But what it does do is give us the everlasting solution.

We then can chose to believe the truth or reject it. God rejects all idols that would include ourselves and every other person small or great! We await then the "New heaven and earth" where God's righteousness exist forever, not man's.

Is that easy? No! It is a narrow and cramp road that few find, but nevertheless it is truth. All of us struggle in our flesh with the weakness of giving glory to idols, but denying that truth, is living a lie, so we don't we understand our flesh can't be fixed, that is uncorrupted, it will die, but not our soul.

God will give us the endurance and many lessons once we accept the truth, it will be by his undeserved kindness that is grace. Remember truth is not a program it is the person of Christ Jesus, he is our truth, not a step, by step program that someone can tell you what to do, you must seek truth, God gives it in abundance.

We all want to tell others what the truth is, but how many actual do what Christ Jesus told us to do? Truth starts with us and ends with us, we become part of the living Truth Christ Jesus our teacher then we have found truth and it can't fail us even when we fail the truth.

Your Friend,
Daniel
