Devoted to One

Paul, in his 2nd letter to the church in Corinth (11:1-4):

“I hope you will put up with me in a little foolishness. Yes, please put up with me! I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him.

But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.”

 

From the very beginning of the church the enemy did his level best to deceive God’s chosen. Beware of imitations! False teachings, false gods, false beliefs, false prophets, false miracles and false doctrine are all around.

Do not be fooled.

Know God’s Word so when wolves come in sheep’s clothing you can smell it a mile away. We must be discerning in these last days and refuse to settle for anything less than the pure truth of the Spirit of God that washes us clean and purifies and readies us for the day of our wedding feast with our Bridegroom.

Until then, God has so much in store for us!

Let us put the world behind and be about our Father’s business so that we will have no reason to be ashamed when He comes for us. What a glorious day that will be!
