"There Is No Equator"
"Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." (Psalms 55:22) You know this right? I hope you do, because not every one of us that confess to be Christians do, nor do they even want to try; it's as if, in their minds, putting full and complete trust in the Bible is some sort of blind faith; when in actual reality, the Bible is the proof of all that we believe in! As I sat in church yesterday, Pastor Damion spoke of these same truths, and I was brought to tears; not because of any sort of conviction, but because I was blown away at how the Holy Spirit works to give us all the same message at the same time. Pastor Damion was sharing from Isaiah 41:21-29, and the message was about God's challenge to His people and their idols; first asking them if their idols could predict things which will happen, or if they knew how things have come to pass, or into existence (v.22 & 23); or how about just let them do something, anything at all (v.24). God has provided for us the proof and the reason to believe and trust in Him in sixty six chapters, all contained in one book called 'The Holy Bible', and it is reason enough to believe! Yet there are those among us that want to pick and choose what they want to believe; and worse than that, they want to pick and choose what is truth and what is not; and believe me, there is a difference between choosing to believe and choosing the truth, because the truth will speak for itself in our times of unbelief!!! That is the greatest thing about the Bible, it does not lie! And even though we might doubt something that is written, the truth erases all doubt; and in such a circumstance of doubt, we can just accept the truth, which is where some get the idea of "Blind Faith"; which in and of itself is total foolishness, because if God has said it, and we trust in God, then there is nothing blind about it! As a matter of fact, everything else is blind compared to the truth of the Bible... "For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power of and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. For He received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice from the excellent glory, This is Me Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased. And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with Him in the holy mount. We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day-star arise in your hearts: knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." (2 Peter 1:16-21)
