Everyone is so addicted to the virtual world nowadays. Often I see people outside walking their dogs, or being with their kids, all with their heads down.. being on their phones.. zombies who are blind to what happens around them.
The entire world has been fooled in believing that the internet helps us to connect with everyone, to always be up to date about what is going on, while at the same time we have been more disconnected from each other and from reality than ever before.
Lately I been thinking, how does pagan worship look like? Often it will involve bowing heads down to the object of worship. Suddenly it clicked for me. Slaves to the system. Slaves of satan.
My Lord makes it possible. He is my hope and my Salvation!
Christianity today won't stand up for Biblical truths. Instead they want to be friends with the world even though that means enmity with God. Modern day christianity has become all about "Judge not!" while Jesus said to “Judge with righteous judgment.”
Jesus didn't came to bring peace, but division. He explained what it means to follow Him daily. Christianity isn’t about self-help. It’s about self-denial and total surrender to Christ. Jesus Christ is not a life coach. He is Lord and Savior.
Love isn't tolerance. Love warns and speaks God's truth. That truth offends. It divides. It’s not self-righteous to speak truth boldly. It’s Christ-like.
Since they continually are given opportunity to keep doing so, without clear rebuke, often even with encouragement, I cannot endorse such groups for Christian fellowship, nor to gain sound doctrine, and hereby state my warning.
Darkness and light cannot blend. Paul had firm words to those who tolerate corruption and immorality in the body of Christ only to make it appear to the outside world how "loving" and "tolerant" they are. The proper response is not to boast but to mourn. Jesus also gave firm warnings in Revelation to the churches about these matters.
Be very cautious when it comes to the internet. You never know who is on the other end of the screen. Don't let the virtual world be a substitute for the real world, God's design.
You can read the entire Bible with any PhD and still come not to the understanding about the things of God. The natural personal is hostile to the things of God. His Sheep are given the Holy Spirit who opens our eyes to understand the things of God (Luke 24:45-48; John 14:26). No one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God (1 Cor 2:11).
If we love Him we keep His commandments. How do we know about ALL His commandments and the entire counsel of God (Acts 20:26-31)? It is written.
Instead of always being drawn by something "fascinating", every wind of doctrine, we as God's children go to the pure instructions of our Father. His Word is sufficient & stands forever. It does not care about opinions.
God says it, that settles it.
How much more will satan try to deceive self professing Christians who do not abide in God's Word and therefore miss the crucial part of the full armor of God. If we do not know His Word, we can also not know if we follow the God of Scripture and not a god made in our own image, and we cannot detect and protect ourselves against falsehood and deception from satan and his minions.
It is easy to detect deceivers. satan and his minions will always downplay God's Word and steer us away from God's Word, by letting us believe we can lean on our own understanding, instead of relying on the wisdom of God, as satan also did in the garden.
It all started with one question: “Did God REALLY say?” How do we know if God really said it? By knowing His Word. His Word is both a necessity AND a treasure to those who love Him.
