THE TEN COMMANDMENTS (CONT.)
-DEUT4 :12-16
3) AVOID WHAT ENDANGERS YOUR WORSHIP
-hardened heart: over exposure and under response of the truth
-repeated exposure to a particular truth and yet refusing to embrace and apply it, develops a hardened heart
-once an individual loses the ability tto discern God's prompting, he becomes open to anything
-when we change God's standard, it isn't God's standard anymore. we create a form of Christianity- one that doesn't accurately reflect what God truly thinks
-arrogance : is what we think that God should be
-he may bear a striking resemblance to God of the Bible, but the god is personalised. a variation of the real think, it is an idol.
-invisible friends are a figment to our imagination
-God wants to strengthen our weaknesses but we struggle when He touches our weaknesses
-God left us here because He wants us to be like Him. if we don't look like Him, He will not be able to reconigse us
-a hardened heart is difficult to track because it leads to numbness
-the degree of one's hard heartedness is equal to the disparity between what grieve the person & what grieves God
2 litmus paper tests
(1) - am i grieving by the same things that grieve God?
-do i feel what God feels?
-Am i bothered by the things that bother God?
(2)Would there be many similarities between the God of the bible and the god you follow?Labels: the ten commandments
I love you, God! ❤
