Committed? One God? 2 Chronicles 17:6 Be committed!

Good morning friends! God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!

Commitment!  Do you have it?  Are you committed to something? Anything?  In 2 Chronicles we find Jehoshaphat, a good king, one realizing the religious decline of the people.

2 Chronicles 17:6 "He was deeply committed to the ways of the LORD. He removed the pagan shrines and Asherah poles from Judah."

Are you deeply committed to the LORD and His ways?  We tend to "water down" every thing so it "won't hurt anyones feelings" yet we don't stand up for God, for Jesus! We, as Christians, have to be careful about being politically correct and be sensitive to their feelings.  Bah, hum bug.  Why do these same people not have to be careful and sensitive to us?  To our needs?  To what we believe?

How many times do you hear someone say as long as they believe in God, or a god - we are all going to the same place and believe basically the same . What?  WHAT?  Jehoshaphat removed the 'gods' of the pagans, to worship the only one and true God.  To tell someone as long as they believe in A GOD is wrong.  There is only 1 GOD.  There is only one way - SALVATION THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!

Yesterday evening my wife and I went to see "Last Ounce of Courage".  An excellent movie, depicting freedom in the USA and religious freedom in the USA.  This man, the mayor, was challenged by his grandson and brought Christmas back to their town.  Not 'winter break', not 'holiday season',  not 'season celebration', but CHRISTMAS.  It was a fight, he was fired as mayor, but he brought Christmas back and his last act was replacing the "JESUS SAVES" cross on the homeless shelter.

I ask you today, ARE YOU COMMITTED?  Will you tell people JESUS SAVES!  Or will you water down your message with the wimpy we all must believe in a god. You are lukewarm if you do. Bah, hum bug. JESUS SAVES!  ONE GOD!  ONE SAVIOR! ONE HOLY SPIRIT! Commit, one way or the other - COMMIT!  Love you all.
