What should we expect?
« on: December 09, 2020, 08:52:57 am »
Scripture is full of commands, things that God expects us to do or not do...pray without ceasing, study the scriptures, Love one another, repent, humble ourselves, etc. If we do NOT obey, why do we expect God to be faithful to what He said He would do if we obey?

It is human nature not to follow GOD until and only until He Calls.
A poem for those who do not obey.

You call me eternal, then do not seek me.
You call me fair, then do not love me.
You call me gracious, then do not trust me.
You call me just, then do not fear me.
You call me life, then do not choose me.
You call me light, then do not see me.
You call me Lord, then do not respect me.
You call me Master, then do not obey me.
You call me merciful, then do not thank me.
You call me mighty, then do not honor me.
You call me noble, then do not serve me.
You call me rich, then do not ask me.
You call me Savior, then do not praise me.
You call me shepherd, then do not follow me.
You call me Way, then do not walk with me.
You call me wise, then do not heed me.
You call me Son of God, then do not worship me.
When I [sentence] you, then do not blame me.

written by who nobody knows, but written on the Arc of a cathedral door in a small town in Germany.....

Enjoy

so if we don't obey, or even try to obey, what can we expect from God?

For example, if we refuse to study scripture, refuse to be teachable, refuse to put scripture in context, insist on forcing scripture to say what we want it to see, can we rest assured that God will indeed teach us what He wants us to know?


One of many examples...
