Day102:
Biblical Principle -
Absolute truth from God’s Word:
If the World views something as theirs to represent their
loves, remove it from your presence.
God’s people are not to use the worlds things to worship God. It does not matter if the item is not evil in
and of itself. Mountains, hills, green
trees, altars, pillars and groves are not evil but if the world is using them
in their worship we should not. Do not
use worldly attractions to attract people to God.
Deut
12:1-5 These are
the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do in the land, which the
LORD God of thy fathers giveth thee to possess it, all the days that ye live
upon the earth.
Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the
nations which ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and
upon the hills, and under every green tree:
And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their
pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven
images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God.
But unto the place which the LORD
your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and
thither thou shalt come:
Practical - Works
that apply Biblical Principle:
This section is for you to find a way to apply the truth in
your life. I will try to give only one as example; there may be other practical
ways. This is what makes the Christian walk so important and makes it important
to have a deliberate purpose in everything we do.
If you worship is about making your flesh happy, beware.
Col 2:18-23 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a
voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which
he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
And not holding the Head, from
which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit
together, increaseth with the increase of God.
Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ
from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye
subject to ordinances,
(Touch not; taste not; handle not;
Which all are to perish with the
using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
Which things have indeed a shew of
wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any
honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
