For Wednesday, November 13, 2024:
1 Thessalonians 2:15 NLT: “Some of the Jews killed the prophets, and some even killed the Lord Jesus. Now they have persecuted us, too. They fail to please God and work against all humanity.”
Just because someone is born a Jew doesn’t mean they’re good people. Similarly, someone born to Christian parents and raised up in a church isn’t necessarily a good person. God gave us all the freedom to choose, and each of us needs to make our own decision to follow Jesus!
When pushed, a lot of people will point to a Bible, but they haven't seen the inside of a church in a long time. Beware! You don’t just need to own a Bible. You need to open it up, read what it says, and then adjust your behavior to conform to God’s point of view.
False teachers can wear fancy robes and preach inside a building with a cross on the outside, but they’re not the real thing. It can be quite deceptive! That’s why we all need to memorize truth from our Bibles and sit in congregations where that truth is taught.
God’s way is the right way!
