DOUBLE LIFE OR DOUBLE MIND?
Many are the questions of the unlearned, and many are their afflictions; because they will not receive knowledge, many are the troubles of the trespasser; for they care not for their fellowman, many are the deceptions of politicians; because they cannot turn from a bribe, Many are the sufferings of the innocent; because love is vanishing from the world;
Contradiction is the product of a double mind; the solution is self definition hence “ who am I in Christ “, then harnessing the strength of the Spirit to be focused by your faith to achieve that identity. I did not choose God; he chose me, he called me, he appointed me, he conditioned me, he positioned me, and then he anointed me to go into the world to preach the gospel. I am who I am in Him, and in me; He is who He is by working through me, yet I must present myself a living sacrifice, one that is holy and acceptable one who is being a doer of the word and not just a hearer of the word.
I cannot have the best of both worlds, I must submit totally to one or the other, because a double minded person is unstable in all their ways, they cannot honestly expect to receive anything from the Lord. Why? God does not squander his anointing away on the half-hearted that mock him at every turn. Lying only delays any penalties that may have happened, remember God keeps a record and we all shall give an account to him one day. Life here is a serious endeavor, once we realize who we are in Christ; we must yield ourselves totally unto him so we become as a two edged sword of righteousness in his hand to devour our spiritual foes, and win lost souls. To see the Lord glorified in us. Selah!
Shalom, Agape, & Amen!
