Hold Your Ground in God

Weekly Word from the Wisdom Walk

Thessalonians 2:1-3Version (NKJV)The Great Apostasy

Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of [b]sin is revealed, the son of perdition.

The very fact this conversation is necessary proves the truth of the Bible and Christianity.  It doesn't matter who claim to kiss Christianity goodbye or who has given up singing the songs of the LORD, our faith should not be shaken. Yes, some of the apostate or confused are influencers but honestly, our faith should not be based on worship songs or worship leaders. And because someone who wrote for God now supposedly has denied him, it does not alter the truth of the Word.

Beloved,  don't be shaken. We were warned of the falling away and sadly, some Christians will follow the lead of the backslider. This is why faith MUST be in God and our eyes can't be on just people or a feeling, or type of music. We must tear down these idols and icons, get in our own prayer closets, and see Jesus. If we are so rattled now, what will we do when things get worse???
And even as stand firm let's not close the door on these weaker believers. Continue to pray for them as they struggle. God is fully able to restore them to his service, for his glory.
 MARANATHA !!
