"The teaching of the Bible has a vital bearing upon man's prosperity in all the relations of this life. It unfolds the principles that are the cornerstone of a nation's prosperity - principles with which is bound up the well-being of society, and which are the safeguard of the family - principles without which no man can attain usefulness, happiness, and honor in this life, or can hope to secure the future, immortal life."

He Is Real... But Do I KNOW It?

In Thursday's post, one of my favourite bloggers asks the question, "How real is God really", as she addresses the content of a video clip entitled, 'Ten Questions for Intelligent Christians'.  You will need to pop on over to read about her intimate experience with God, but here is a sample of her thought-provoking conclusion....

"I may wax on about knowing God's real, but do I live with shoes off, trembling on holy ground, wearing my crash helmet, braced for His electrifying Presence? Do I only pay lip service to believing, not waiting for the burning ember of His Spirit to burn these lips clean? Do I mumble prayers, rote mantras, not expecting earth to rip open and fire balls to rain down? Do I believe He's just real enough just to comfort me, get me past heaven's pearly gates... but not real enough to blazingly tear up my comfortable days?"

So what are you still hanging around here for?  Head on over to her blog and read the whole post... you will be glad you did. ;)


Today, may we passionately seek His face, and may the earth shake beneath us as He disrupts our complacency with fire that consumes and purifies.
