A great number of young and older persons do not believe in strict obedience to God’s words. They believed that time has changed and they must live a little. Like Eve, many seem to view God’s “thou shalt not” as a mystery to be explored and experienced. After all, God does forgive, doesn’t He? But what so many, like the Jews of old, fail to realize is that though God’s instructions were given long ago, they are all still relevant – even in the 21st century and beyond.
We can conclude that as we dig, and continue to dig a little deeper in the storehouse of God’s words, heavenly treasures will be unfolded that we will hold dearly. In faith we will respond to our God of love in total obedience as we allow His words to cleanse and sanctify us. We will then walk and talk the way Christians should.
People are more enlightened today and the Bible is freely distributed in many countries unopposed. Today, for many, sharing of the Gospel of Christ is much easier; and daily, many converts are won for Jesus Christ. But a few things have changed: the Word of God is not read as it should be, nor its principles held dear and practiced among all its believers. Many seem to be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ and by their actions, are refusing to be counted. Many compromised its teachings and, instead of being true Protestants, have joined forces.
Sometimes we hear a message, or might have read a passage, but the real meaning of what was read or said seems to have missed us. It might have been the same with the disciples then; but praise God, they eventually understood His messages. He came to be the sacrifice for all people; not just Jews. The hour came and Jesus Christ was glorified. When Jesus spoke of being glorified, He spoke of His death. He knew that only His blood was the true price for our ransom from sin.
