Choices, Choices, Choices
Life is full of choices; some good, some bad. If you have made the choice to become a Christian and have asked the Lord into your heart, then you are responsible to follow the laws of life he has set forth.
Just because it's in the old testament doesn't mean it's not applicable to you today! The old testament is there for us to learn from. The Lord is giving us the opportunity to learn from the mistakes of others. Yes, the Jewish people.
Just because the verses are in the old testament and the Lord is speaking specifically to the Jewish people. Does not mean that it is not applicable today. First to the Jews then to the Gentiles Paul said. So if you're not a Jew, then you're a Gentile and the same applies.
The Lord is no respector of persons. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
Choosing to follow Christ, should not be taken lightly. Yes, it is a Choice. If you've choosen to follow Christ; then you must do so HIS WAY. That means you need to learn of him and his requirements in leading the Christian life. If you haven't been reading your Bible ... start. He doesn't expect scholars overnight; take an interest in what he has to say to you by reading his word. Say a short prayer before you start reading asking him to help you understand his word.
This is all I have for right now, hope your new year has gotten off on a wonderful note!
Oh, please remember to thank the Lord for all he has done in your life; good and bad, because without those experiences you wouldn't be where you are today!
Thank you Lord for All you have done in my life, "JJ"
