Preparing for the Future (Part 2)
One Minute Shorts
Seek Ye The Lord
Isaiah 55:6-7 (KJV)
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found,
Call ye upon him while he is near:
Let the wicked forsake his way,
And the unrighteous man his thoughts:
And let him return unto the LORD,
And he will have mercy upon him;
And to our God,
For he will abundantly pardon.
What exactly is it, that gets in our way of seeking and knowing God?
How many ways do we set ourselves up for failure in seeking God?
When will the general public wake up and take responsibility for the evil they have pursued, rather than the goodness that God has offered to freely give to them?

When Our Relationship starts with “Blaspheme,” that makes it pretty tough to be friends with God.
What person “in his right mind” would take God’s name and use it as a cuss word?
Why should any man speak disrespectfully, dishonorably, and defile the name, the title, or make any reference to God in a wicked manner? To what benefit? To what end? What is the Direct purpose of such behavior?
Why would any atheist who claims there is no God, use God’s name and vain? Why should he make any reference to God at all? Talk about delusional thinking. If he doesn’t believe in God, why does he reference him with irreverence? that simply makes no sense at all.
Where do such men get such ideas?

Do you want to follow Jesus?
Then something has to die.
Matthew 16:24-27 (KJV)
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. 26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Who is the Bigot Here?
Is Truth determined by majority opinion?
What if the Majority is Wrong? (like it usually is)

THE LOVE WE DON’T DESERVE
Proverbs 4:20-27 (KJV)
20 My son, attend to my words;
incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes;
keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them,
and health to all their flesh.
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence;
for out of it are the issues of life.
24 Put away from thee a froward mouth,
and perverse lips put far from thee.
25 Let thine eyes look right on,
and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
26 Ponder the path of thy feet,
and let all thy ways be established.
27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left:
remove thy foot from evil.
