Ephesians 1:7-10

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight, making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. (Ephesians 1:7-10)

There Should Be No Surprise



I recently saw a comic posted on Facebook about the death of Christianity in America.  On one side was an atheist who said they were not a Christian.  On the other side were two other people: a Christian who said they were, and another person who said that it was advantageous to believe that because it was more accepted in society.  Then it showed a picture of today and there was still the atheist and the Christian, but the guy in the middle had moved to the other side saying the same thing about it being more advantageous to not be a Christian.

That’s the truth people.  Jesus said the road to Him and Life was narrow.  He said there would be deceivers in sheep’s clothing.  That evil disguises itself as light.

The Biggest Road Blocks to Daily Bible Times


 

Why do so many Christians supposedly not read their Bible regularly?

I have pondered this questions many times.  Mark and I have had discussions on it.  And I think that I have narrowed it down to six main reasons.

  1. “The Bible is corrupted by man and manmade.  It’s not of God.”
  2. “The Bible is no longer relevant, important, or needed anymore.”
  3. “All we need to remember is Jesus is love and to love one another.”
  4. People do not want to be convicted and change their lives.  (Happy Bubble!)
  5. There is consistent sin in a person’s life.
  6. They are not a true believer.
