QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD...Fran's Friday Forum...!!!

While under the weather much of this week, I spent much of my time at home catching up with my reading, Christian programming, and QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD...

Let me say right off, after getting caught up on the latest local and world news, my QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD was the most productive of all activities...

Let me explain...

I think, most would agree, the world is in bad straits...and even the experts can’t agree on solutions anymore...the emotions go from great grief for those inundated by mudslides, to the Malaysian airliner lost for weeks without a clue and sympathy for the passengers’ loved ones, to the disbelief of yet another shooting in a ‘GUN FREE’ zone, to the restless situation in The Ukraine, to the many highly publicized audiences with Pope Francis that seem to be mere photo ops for most public ‘servants’ trying to improve their 'public image'.......AND...

Lest this post becomes as depressing as the news, let me stop there...!!!

WELL, like I said, In my QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD, I had ample time to REFLECT, and these are some of my reflections:

RELATIVISM is evil, illogical, nonsensical, AND ANTI CHRISTIAN...AND...The source of the World’s greatest CONFUSION...Christians should know ABSOLUTE TRUTH...to deny ABSOLUTE TRUTH...is to deny THE TRUTH HIMSELF...JESUS...hence RELATIVISM is, by definition, NON CHRISTIAN...ALL are sinners...and the sin most of us are guilty of is ‘PUTTING STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME’...strange ‘gods’ can come in many forms...materialism...egotism...selfishness...presumption...self reliance...pornography...gluttony...sloth...consumerism...modernism...envy...

There are probably many more you could add to this list...BUT...

BOTTOM LINE: I AM THE LORD THY GOD, YOU SHALL NOT PUT STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME.......Oh Lord, my God, forgive my sins of commission or omission so that in following JESUS, I may live my life more closely CENTERED ON HIM...and look to HIM, the supplier of ALL MY NEEDS...!!!

HAVE A BLESSED WEEKEND...!!!

Relativism; too bad The Lord isn't going to judge us according to how less evil we are than the next guy. Our only role model is Jesus Christ and without Him shedding his blood none of us would have a chance to be saved.

Mike,

And that's the Good News...All who attain heaven will see Jesus as The King Of Kings...and the One whose death got them there...!!!
