Conviction!

When people dispute the authenticity of the bible and its authors it is a guaranteed sign that they are still trapped in their sins, regardless of their claims in understanding the “bigger picture”- this life and then eternity! One could most certainly claim spirituality even when they are still blind to the truth of it all. A self confessed Satanist is a spiritual person, they serve Satan and I am sure witness many miraculous things that could only even be spiritually inspired. We also have the more expected genres of spiritualism, such as yoga and the different forms of meditations and then there is traditional religion, a form of Godliness and yet very far from it. There will be many other claims of spiritualism interwoven throughout those sub-headings and yet they all have their place in the trickery of deceit which will eventually be exposed for what it is. Deceit is normally only ever realised when it is far too late to do anything about it. However is you have breath you still have life and repentance can be found in and through the Lord Jesus Christ.

Deceit often leaves you feeling good about something; lets use an example that will ruffle feathers; saving the donkey or the rhino may leave you self-satisfied but if you do not acknowledge God as the creator of all things whilst undergoing such plights, you have missed it all and are under the lure of entrapment and live under the spell of deception, with Satan as the magician trapping you into believing his lie. You have been blinded into worshiping the creature rather than the One who created it all, the Triune God, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul, who once was Saul, a Jewish murderer of Christians, pens these words so that there will be no mistake on the matter; “For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.” (Romans 1:19-20)   

There are so many fabricated myths about creation and religion that it very disturbing at times. Fluctuating voices rumbles across the globe, with magicians on every corner trying to keep society from uncovering the truth; there is only one true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! The Christians God!

What I have come to love about the Bible is endless; I suppose I price it like a mathematician values his formulas which unravel so many truths, as the words penned in the Bible jump out at me with such ease and it delights my soul when I find enlightenment. With the pages of the Bible coming to life as the Holy Spirit shows me some insight into God’s plan and His character. But it wasn’t always this way. There was a time when I would try and read the bible, which was a laborious task. A time in my life where I was still blind to its truth; it is as simple as that! If you have tried to read the bible and find it boring or a difficult task, it just may be that you are still blind to so many of its hidden treasures and the first place to start would be to examine your position in Christ. Forget your upbringing, or your religion, if you are not driven to the Bible and its contents something is amiss. This is the kind of intent we should all be driven by, look at Paul's introduction to the church at Galatia; “Paul, an apostle--not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead – (And then he includes all those that are with him); and all the brothers who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:” (Galatians 1:1-2)

New birth and receiving sight to see God as He is, is rather miraculous and wonderful. If what I say eludes your comprehension then you have not seen the truth and once again I say if you have breath you still have hope, cry out to the Lord Jesus and ask Him to forgive you for your sins. If you say you have no sin then what I urge you to do will not help you, it’s only a sick person who seeks out a doctor. Only those who where once blind and cry out, I was blind but now I can see! Those are the people who understand! What will you do with the greatest physician of all time, the Lord Jesus Christ, will you cry out to Him or will you let Him pass you by?
