MY FRIENDS, THE ROAD OF LEAST RESISTANCE, SHOULD WE TAKE IT?

MY FRIENDS, THE ROAD OF LEAST RESISTANCE, SHOULD WE TAKE IT?

“With multiple crises spiraling out of control around the world, stories about the Obama presidency are taking on the air of postmortems.” So now, my friends the spiraling out of control media is asking, and so is a world whose spiritual compass points to “things that are on earth, not on the things above.

“What went wrong and who’s to blame.” My friends let’s see who’s to blame. We now live in a world where the house wives of whatever city is leading in the ratings that week reality show personal are sanctioned by the god of this world and corporate advertisers to give relationship advice to write, and call in’s.

How unfortunate for the individuals who seeks their advice and follow through on it. Then we have More than 3,000 students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who were part of a program, that was implemented by a department head and an office administrator.

The program allowed credit for fake classes over an 18-year period that allowed the students to remain eligible to play sports. Then of course we have ISIS making a million dollars a day selling oil on the black market to the Syrian Regime and Iraqi Kurds, who of course are the same regime they are fighting against.

In addition, they are selling it  from a location in Turkey a country that is one of America’s allies and of course America’s Goal is to annihilate ISIS with daily bombings. So by all accounts, we are living in a world that is spiraling out of control.

A world where THE ROAD OF LEAST RESISTANCE, EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE TAKING and the road with LEAST RESISTANCE is the “wide road that leads to destruction” But as a society it is much easier to blame the president then to quote scripture which comes directly from God’s media source, His Word.

His word has been telling us close to 4,000 years that the world is spiraling out of control, and it started when Satan said “I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” Is 14:14 (NIV)

So now we have “wars and rumors of wars……nation rising against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and famines and earthquakes in various places. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs [and our world spiraling out of control].

In addition, lawlessness will increase, and the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he, [or she] will be saved.” Matt 24 (NASB) Paul also tells us in 2 Tim 3:13 (ASVB) “evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.”

Each of our bible writers was like an artist that came along and put their own unique style on the canvas of prophecy. One by one, they came, each putting their distinct, color and touch on the canvas. And one day soon, Christ will come through the clouds above and He will put the final stroke on this picture.

And oh, the beauty of the final work for “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man” that final picture My friends, and I can say with no reservation, there is no LEAST RESISTANCE way to be a part of it.

“You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier. And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.” 2 Tim 2:3-5 (ASB)

And my friends, the rules never changes “”Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” Matt. 16:24 (NIV) and that road is difficult “Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life [eternal], and there are few who find it.”

So my friends today I ask that you allow God’s Spirit to guide you as you search the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation with your focal point on Christ while asking yourself the question IS THERE A ROAD OF LEAST RESISTANCE THAT LEADS TO LIFE ETERNAL, IF NOT, THEN WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
