Yesterday I mentioned after worship that the Lord has been speaking to me about a line that He has drawn in the sand . He said that He wants us on His side but the world fights to keep us on it's side . The choice is ours to make . And it is critical that we see the difference in the sides . There are some that they just can't grasp that Jesus , God , creation is real . Those will find out on judgement day that they are wrong . I don't want to talk so negatively but it has to be said so maybe one will pull the blinders from their eyes and see the truth . Some are worried that they will be judged by their worldly peers . They will go to Church on Sunday and be a heathen the rest of the week . They might believe that they only need a 2 hour Jesus . We as believers should be telling those people that want to straddle that line that they are in danger . See scripture tells us about where we should stand , On a firm foundation on solid ground . I see in my mind the difference a man , if you will , standing straddling a line one foot on the right , one on the left . The sand on the left is starting to sink because the foundation under it is weak and has nothing to support it . But the right side is firm it is sturdy and has a rock solid base . The straddling man can't hold onto anything on the left side but on the right side we have God's Holy Word The Truth . So when the sand just gives way which side do you think the man will end up on . Unless he has both of his feet firmly planted on the solid ground he will fall into the side that has just given way . And with that line in the sand I am reminded when Jesus draws in the sand it is of great importance . Remember the woman about to get stoned to death? Jesus knelt down drew in the sand and asked where are your accuser's ? That line is a line that represents Repentance . So don't play on the edge and remember people are watching us every chance they get , to see how we handle situations and the world can use that against us . The right side of that line represents all that is Holy and the left all that is against Holiness .
DWAYNE SHORT
Amen!!
