NEVER COMPROMISE

Good Morning family,

4th December, 2022.

Verse of the Day

Hebrews 2:1 CEV

‘Give our full attention to what we were told.’

What are the foundational truths on which the church of Jesus Christ is built? Jesus’ virgin birth; his sinless life; his atoning death; his bodily resurrection and mediatory work on our behalf; our need to be saved, baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit; the infallibility of the Bible; and the commission to carry the gospel to the four corners of the earth and announce the soon return of our Lord Jesus to rule and reign. These truths are non-negotiable!

You say, ‘But won’t we appear narrow minded?’ The law of gravity is narrow minded! The law of mathematics is narrow minded! Paul was narrow minded: ‘But even if we, or an angel from Heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed’ (Galatians 1:8 NKJV). Cancer begins with one unidentified, unchecked cell, but it can destroy your whole body. That’s why Jude writes: ‘Contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ’ (Jude 1:3–4 NKJV). Note the words ‘faith which was once for all delivered to the saints’.

Our methods of reaching the world may change, but our message must never change. You say, ‘But aren’t we supposed to love everybody?’ Yes, and that’s why we must never compromise on God’s Word.

Action point of the Day

No matter how tempted you might be to compromise the word and standard of God, even if it’s in order for you to preach the word; never compromise. Compromise to teach the word changes the message and it’s no longer the gospel of Christ
