"You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.
"You shall not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples who are all around you (for the LORD your God is a jealous God among you), lest the anger of the LORD your God be aroused against you and destroy you from the face of the earth."(Deuteronomy 6:5, 14-15 NKJV)
We have not listened! We have not obeyed! We have made god in our own image, to the point He no longer resembles the God from the Old Testament. Our christianity is saturated with the religion of humanism.
hu·man·ism
ˈ(h)yo͞oməˌnizəm/
noun
- an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. Humanist beliefs stress the potential value and goodness of human beings, emphasize common human needs, and seek solely rational ways of solving human problems.
We have made "it" all about us! Our happiness; our success; our belief. It doesn't matter if "it" conflicts with The Word of God, we will do "it" our way! Our god is a god of love, who will love us no matter what we do, how we act; never reigning us in, just like we are prone to do with our children.
But that's not how it is.
Yes, He loves us, but read on -
"“For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.
“Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments; and He repays those who hate Him to their face, to destroy them. He will not be slack with him who hates Him; He will repay him to his face." (Deuteronomy 7:6, 9-10 NKJV)
If you love the LORD, you keep His Commandments! If you don't keep His Commandments, you hate Him.
"“If you love Me, keep My commandments." (John 14:15 NKJV)
"“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."(Matthew 6:24 NKJV)
It is time we take a look at our hearts! It is time we examine our beliefs and line up with His Word! It is time to acknowledge our sin and repent! For time is running out and you will have to decide Who you will serve; God or yourself!
Ask God to open your eyes to The Truth and expose the lies that have been seeded through the "traditions of men and doctrines of demons."
Pick up your Bible and prove me wrong! Read it page by page, cover to cover! Let it change your life!
Ask Him to reveal Himself to you, and I promise He will!
"“And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments of the LORD and His statutes which I command you today for your good?"(Deuteronomy 10:12-13 NKJV)
Even so - MARANATHA!
