We live in a time when people want to have things go along,
in fact, folks will go a long ways out of their way, not to have to
deal with a hassle. So it just seems to make sense that we would take
a look at whether this matches up with what the Bible says. We say that
we believe the Bible, it is the guide for our life, and so, as a result, if
we are going to become people who "go along to get along," we ought
to see that all over the Bible in all kinds of ways, right? Only what we
see is, just the opposite. We see a man who was hassled for 125 years
building a boat for when the rains came flooding the land, when it had
never rained? That had to be fun.
We see a man who has to tell everyone
that he had a dream where he saw angels coming down to earth, and then,
going back up again? Don't you know people had some questions about that,
"Oh sure, sure we believe you, angels,
yeah, that makes sense, and what
did they do? They totally ignored everybody?
Did they ignore the women
too? Ya know, we've heard that
they didn't ignore 'em in the old days."
That must've been a fun time for him, huh?
We learn about a man who
says, "it's not the food that we're allowed to eat, I'll go and pray about
it." Who gets told if he does, it's off to the Lion's; and, so, his choice
on that one is obvious isn't it? You'd choose the Lion too, wouldn't you?
Then we come to a man who faced not only a storm, but a very
frightening vision from within that storm that spoke to him, told
him to do all sort of strange things, and then, told him to tell the
people that they weren't going to be renewed yet. All fun things to
have to say. Are you getting the drift here? Maybe we aren't supposed
to just go along to get along? What do you think?
Jam 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works:
shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
