Not Our Ways!

Romans 11:33 "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out".

Who knows the mind of our Lord? He tells us His ways are not our ways, and neither are our ways His ways; yet we live in an era where mans imagination is starting to distort God's true revelation given to mankind. We actually are starting to believe we know better than God. we have started down a road to destruction when we start pushing our will before God's perfect plan, and purpose for our life.

The entire book of the bible is about Jesus Christ the savior and mans need for salvation. From the fleeing of Egypt to the hill call Calvary, God has been showing man his need to be saved. It tells us in Acts, that everyman is called to repent, that we should repent, be baptized and be saved. It tells us in Luke that we are to leave the 99 and seek after the one that has strayed away. It also tells us in the same chapter that there be some lost in the house. It tells us in Jeremiah, that God gives us pastors according to His heart. Corinthians tells us that He placed each of us in the body where it pleased Him. In the gospels we are told to preach the gospel to every creature and to baptize in the name of the Father, Son and the holy ghost. Timothy tells that all scripture is inspired by God to rebuke, reprove, correct and give instructions in righteousness, that the man of God might be thoroughly furnished unto every good work. And all of Paul's letters are written to the Church and the saints of God. The purpose for all of this is so that God's will be done and none will be lost.

Let we who have been called out of the darkness into His marvelous light just do what we have been instructed to do. Tell every creature the good news of salvation, after all which of us is smart enough to know who is or isn't saved. Who among us is worthy enough to decide who is worth saving. Which one of us really knows what is best for us on a journey where only God knows the end. Who among the church is so righteous all the time, that they don't ever need to hear a word of correction every once and a while?  Which one of us truly knows the mind of God?
