FEB. 8 - A Foundation That Lasts Forever
Today we considered some of the frequent misunderstandings of the Christian message:
1 - That it's all about having the right ideas. Ideas are important. Having our thinking right is important. But Jesus' own words reminded us that the evil spirits recognized him as Lord. Being a disciple certainly includes having our head on straight - but it is much more than that.
2 - That's is all about escaping the punishment of hell. Eternal destinations of union with God or separation from God are real. The Bible makes that clear. But in now way is following Christ primarily a matter of escaping punishment. There is much more than that.
3 - There's really not much hope for this world. Do you run into Christians who believe this? Just think - Jesus taught us to pray "thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." We must certainly be realistic about the amount of evil and damage in the world. But Jesus empowers us to be his agents for good in the world around us. There is hope!
