Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
This morning my wife asked me “Why do you post verses every day on facebook?” My response was “So many people post their own spin of the truth, wouldn’t you rather have the actual truth?”
I follow a select group of bloggers, authors, pastors and musicians. It saddens me how many of these godly men and women post their own thoughts and not scripture. I dumped them and decided I would not follow in their footsteps.
Now don’t get me wrong, I love to have quotes and inspirational messages. But what would you rather be known for? I caught myself last night writing a “twitter sized sound bite” in our Bible Study. It was a good quote. But I would rather be know that I spread God’s word.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
In a world full of people that are spouting their own knowledge, some good some bad, do we stand out with the Gospel? Or will we water down the Gospel and push our own version of a self-help Jesus.
I would contend, “We are what we preach.”
