Hello all,
It is almost mid May and warmer temps are helping Spring along. I have been helping my Church with their Tuesday night Bible Study & Prayer Meeting. We have been going through 1, 2 & 3 John. Very encouraging letters of what marks we have as Christians, warnings of false teachers outside the church and cautions on false brethren in the church. It helps bring to light to current affairs in North America too.
Today we have "leaders" who are more dishonest than Satan. In Job 1:7, Satan is asked, by God, what he is up to. He replies that he is going to & fro on the earth seeking whom he may devour. An honest statement if you ask me. But here in 2013, elected leaders are lying to their citizens, covering up murders they are responsible for, using Government agencies to harass private citizens who oppose them, spending money we don't have and, well I could go on for a long time. But it comes down to truth.
After some discussion at prayer meeting, we agreed that truth comes before love. John even told us to use discernment when meeting brothers we don't know. And not to help out those who are false teachers or who follow a false doctrine about Christ. If we assist these people, we are guilty of spreading their false lies.
Times haven't changed a bit in 2000 years. More proof that we aren't evolving at all. Just sinners doing what we do best.
Do continue to read & study your Bible. It's the greatest thing in our world today. And many ignore it daily. How sad!
