Things I use to Do!

Ephesians 5:8 "For ye were sometimes darkness,but now are ye light in the Lord:walk as children of Light."

There are two walks through life available to all men.There is the life and walk of darkness, or the life and walk of light.There is a world of difference between the two,in fact your eternity is determined by which life or walk you pursue.We all at one time or another journeyed on the walk of darkness.We were all lost, a child of disobedience,a rebeller against God.In fact the bible tells us "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God".We are not whose we use to be.

We now profess to be children of the light, no longer children of the dark,so we are not to walk as others walk.We are new creatures in Christ Jesus,and the walk of darkness is not pleasing unto God.So the things we use to do ,we shouldn't do them anymore.We shouldn't walk in the vanity of our own minds.Thinking more highly of ourselves than we ought,having a dark understanding blinded by the god's of this world to the to the truth and power of the one true and living God.Through Jesus we have been reconciled to God,no longer the children of disobedience, rebelling against God.We are now through Christ children of the light.Jesus is the light of the world and whosoever follows him shall not walk in darkness , but shall have the light of life.Christ not only shows us the light but he made us the light.We are the light of the eternal God in the mist of a world of darkness,therefore we are to walk as children of the light.

We in the dark, one will follow who ever has the light,so when we truly walk as children of the light, those lost in darkness will follow you as you follow Jesus,for no one likes the dark. Let us stop trying to walk in a world of darkness,but instead lead the dark world into the light of the Lord.Jesus said "and I ,If I be lifted up from the earth ,will draw all men unto me."If we raise up the light of the world, the  dark world will be saved.
