Colossians 2: 20 If you died with the Messiah to the elemental forces of this world, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations: 21 "Don't handle, don't taste, don't touch"? 22 All these [regulations] refer to what is destroyed by being used up; they are commands and doctrines of men.
I love these verses. Christs commandments eradicate the rules of the world.
We no longer have to give caution to false truths, theories or myths.
"A BLACK CAT CROSSED YOUR PATH!"
"Oh, he is a Scorpio so you know what that means."
"To be successful you have to do whatever it takes to get to the top."
"A real woman is an independent woman who only needs a man for sex."
"Porn enhances your sexual life."
"Don't you want to test drive before you commit to marriage?"
"You should live together first. See if your compatible."
"GOD is everything. God is in us all and we are all GOD"
We have answers to the worlds view.
God has given us answers to the worlds view on everything.
He has made clear the path of righteousness.
Sometimes, however, we still don't want to walk in it.
Sometimes the world is much more simple in its approach on things.
Sometimes working on just being GODLY and pleasing God
is too much. It is too complex.
And we waiver.
We do not live in the world any longer as our home.
We are aliens, foreigners now, remember?
We are aliens, foreigners now, remember?
Our home awaits us in Christ.
In Christ alone, our hope is found.
God knows our hearts.
He knows us.
He sees through everything and looks right
at the root of our desires and actions.
Father God, make us submit more to you.
Fill us with your spirit so that we can be women
who truly live righteously and do not submit to
the doctrine of man. WE need your spirit and
we are crying out to be obedient to your spirit...
Fill us afresh oh lord...
We love you!
