The More Things Change... by Bill Keller
In Elijah's day, and in the age we live, it is God's people who keep society from completely melting down. We are the spiritual glue that holds society together. The world would be in total chaos without people who love and serve God.
As Elijah challenged the people to choose to serve the true and living God, so do we have that same decision to make. The choice then was between the false prophets of Baal and the God of Israel. Our choice has not changed.
We can choose to serve the false prophets of this world or Jesus Christ. This is not a game, it is a real life decision that determines where we spend eternity.
The false prophets of this world claim they have the answers in the psychic hotlines. They have the answers in alcohol and drugs. They have the answers in money and material possessions. They have the answers in illicit sex with many partners. They have the answers in empty rituals, in idols. The only problem is, when you need them,. in times of trouble, these false prophets of this world are nowhere to be found.
Jesus Christ claims to be the way, the truth, the life. He claims to be God. JESUS PROVED HIS CLAIMS WHEN HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD ON THAT GLORIOUS SUNDAY MORNING!!!!
When He overcame death, hell, and the grave, He promised that He would never leave us nor forsake us. That promise was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost when He sent the Holy Spirit to indwell and empower believers.
Millions of lives in the last 2,000 years have been transformed through personal faith in Christ Jesus who is alive forever, interceding for those who believe in Him!
Place your life in His hands, and allow His gift of eternal life to be yours.
