To Be Least
"For he who is least among you all--he is the greatest." (Luke 9:48)Saturday, January 17, 2004
[Thank you to Mr. Standfast for his comment on yesterdays post. I took it to heart. By the way, I have no intention of ending this blog.]
At our church we have a "small group" on Wednesdays where a couple of the teenagers get together to study God's word with an older adult. There is several observation's I have made during this time of many of the other teens that claim to Christian.
- They usually have a different or secular side to them in school.
- Often they represent Christianity poorly by not following God's commands with interest.
- In most cases they are extremely ignorant.
I have seen all of these in professing Christians that are teenagers and I'm sure it occurs in the adult world as well. In our school's Bible study my other classmates, although they love the Lord, are not properly equipped for spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have also seen those who talk about Christianity in there lives all the time, yet have no actions to support there talk. And finally, the first on the list, many Church going youth drop Christianity in the secular world only to pick it when they reach the doors of the Church.
God bless.
