We all struggle somehow with something not good – be they sin or “just” bad habits. Many of us, with our feet of clay, continue standing on miry clay – which makes us fall. Slippery place to stand! What’s with that?
Charismatic religious sins you take for granted every week but you are practicing sin
If we do not adhere to the original, then we have a very perverted, false counterfeit. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not whatever some apostle or prophet suddenly wants it to be. Charismatics have created a counterfeit faith that saves nobody. And they prevent seekers from getting saved. A horrible reality.
Better is thinking with God’s Word
Are you “an abandoned construction site… piles of stuff, bits and pieces strewn around, ugly windows gaping holes….” Thinking with the thousands around you, with their traditions deep in media, popular, sung and preached? Better is thinking with God’s Word.
He will go before me
What path are you on? (1) “…walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example]” or (2) “And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season; Its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity].”
