Let's have Bible study today !
Topic: "An Eccentric World""
That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.(John 3:6) God is our center, not this world. People say that we Christians are eccentric. An eccentric object wobbles around a point that is off center, but that is what the Bible calls ‘the world!’ It is not believers – evangelists, witnesses, Christians – who are eccentric, but the world! The world wobbles as it revolves around itself, but the believer is centered on God. When people in the Church talk about making the Gospel relevant, they usually mean that we need to show that the Gospel has something in common with the world of industry, entertainment or commerce. They have it backward! The question is whether the world is willing to relate to the message of the Cross. Too bad for the world if it is not, for it will be judged at the Cross. If the world is not relevant to the Gospel, then the world is drifting – it has no anchor. “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect Will of God.” The mistaken belief that Church and State should be separate is not a new idea. The enemy has been trying to put people ahead of God in importance since the beginning of time: “Then the serpent said to the woman, ‘You will not surely die. For God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.’” But God’s Word proclaims, “Wisdom rests in the heart of him who has understanding, but what is in the heart of fools is made known. Righteousness exalts a nation.” Another thing that I hear people say is, “Evangelists answer questions the world is not asking.” Thank God for that! We are giving answers, ready for when the world decides to ask the right questions. Because, it is in asking all the wrong questions, that any answers would be equally wrong.
Purpose in your heart to be ready with God’s answers to every situation in life. Daily Power! The world may wobble around me, but I am centered on Christ Jesus.
