Adultery/Adulterous People- Innocent Casualties

Adultery/Adulterous People- Innocent CasualtiesYou adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. (James 4:4 ESV)

Freedom/Confusion

Where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom (2 Corinthians 3:17) When God’s Spirit leaves, freedom escapes. Left with world influences crowding out Biblical Truth. This is happening in churches across our nation. Societal confusion blurs taking innocent individuals as casualties.

Adultery

Adultery defies one’s body against their spouse. Take a look at the church- Christ is the bridegroom waiting for His Bride, the church. Once we accept salvation, we no longer belong to the world. We are part of the church, belonging to Christ. As I shared with my oldest child last night- the term evangelicals casted as a group of Christians more extreme- should not be the case. A Christian is a Christian. The difference is levels of maturity. We begin as spiritual babies, feeding on God’s Word; learning scripture, developing wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Deeper knowledge gained- deeper revelation revealed. This is not just for one denomination. This is for every individual willing to surrender to God’s blueprints.

Sober Minded

Adultery against God defies self with worldly matters. For example, when someone says they are drinking lots of Budweiser- we know this causes a person to become drunk, definitely not sober minded. The Bible sets clear expectations of Christ-like behavior, linking us to holiness. God desires us to become holy, because He is holy.  Therefore, any time we defy our bodies to things of this world- drunkenness is just one example, we’re separating ourselves from Christ. Making friendship with the world, makes one an enemy of Christ.

Warriors

Let’s not stay an adulterous nation, defying Biblical Truth. When individuals point out scripture with pure hearts- this is not judging. Count it a blessing someone cares enough to speak Truth. God has equipped me with a bold, tenacious spirit, ready to fight evil with Biblical Truth. Warriors are brave or experienced soldiers/fighters. Let’s be warriors, moving closer to holiness. We never want to be God’s enemy.

Be encouraged!
