Walking with Christ in Truth

If we are walking with Christ the unsaved will not influence us into becoming like them. If we find ourselves beginning to act like the unsaved then we are spending too much time with them.

It is astounding how many things in our lives are much like the culture around us. We are so accustomed to the things around us that we forget that most of it is not of God.

The more we walk with Christ the more of these useless things drop from our lives. They become distasteful to us, so much so that we are appalled by them.

1 Thessalonians 5:21

"21 Test all things; hold fast what is good."

When we ask God to expose everything that is not of Him, we will be shocked at how much the church has accepted that God actually hates.

Mark 7:13 "13 Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”

The more we ask God to show us the truth the more our eyes are opened to everything. It is shocking how distant the church as a whole has moved away from the Bible.

As others have said, the Bible has become a book of suggestions to be ignored when someone does not like something that is written in its pages. The church as a whole has removed scriptures from their context to make the verses and words say what they want them to say rather than asking God what He meant in order to obey Him.

Many Christians are claiming to believe the Bible while at the same time negating much if not most that is written in it.
