Spirit of the age

    "The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." - 2 Corinthians 4:4 NIV

 "If our Message is obscure to anyone, it’s not because we’re holding back in any way. No, it’s because these other people are looking or going the wrong way and refuse to give it serious attention. All they have eyes for is the fashionable god of darkness. They think he can give them what they want, and that they won’t have to bother believing a Truth they can’t see. They’re stone-blind to the dayspring brightness of the Message that shines with Christ, who gives us the best picture of God we’ll ever get." - 2 Corinthians 4:4 THE MESSAGE

    There are greater days ahead. I'm not a doom and gloom Christian. I believe that those who stay connected to Him will continue to go from glory to glory, victory to victory no matter what happens around us. Our best days are ahead. But that does not mean everyone will continue on the path of light. Many will be devoured by the spirit of the age and follow the voice of deception. Many will leave their pure unadulterated faith for a compromised new age faith that enjoys a little bit of everything - creating their own god.

     How do we avoid such a down fall as the majority begin floating down steam? We avoid it by staying focused. By reading our Bibles and praying in the Holy Spirit. If you are not filled, it's time to be filled with the evidence of speaking in tongues. The Holy Spirit will empower you, He will teach you, guide you and lead you on paths of righteousness. He is our helper.

       There is a way that is cool, it's seen as mature, cultured, worldly and hip and then there is a way that is right and true. We have to choose which way we will go. It won't always be easy, but the choice is ours. There are greater days ahead and an eternal weight of glory awaiting those who will not turn their backs and follow a god created by man.
