He that loveth father or mother more
than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is
not worthy of me. Matthew 10:37
Ive been seeing a lot of
people lately who dont want to give up things or people in their lives who lead
them away from the Lord. A Christian who has a rabidly antichristian boyfriend
and finds their faith being shaken. Someone who loves their fiance and is
living with them, but wont stop that sin to follow the relationship with
Christ.
Jesus told us what the
greatest commandment is.
Master, which is the great commandment
in the law? Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and
great commandment. Matthew 22:36-38
We say He needs to be
first in our lives, but is He? Are we allowing someone or something to take
precedence? Do we encourage new believers enough to put aside the things or
lifestyle or even the people who come between them and the Lord? Is our own
heart and focus on the Lord first?
