I had a good talk the other day with a dear friend. When things got around to spiritual matters he reminded me that he had raised his children well, spent lots of time with them, given them all that they had needed (and wanted).
He feels that, when the time comes, he’ll be okay–whatever that means. I pointed out to him what I consider to be a fatal flaw in his thinking/theology: the failure to honor God and put Him first. Exodus 20:3 is very clear: “You shall have no other Gods before me.”
You can keep the other nine Commandments, but keep in mind that they all FOLLOW the first, so make this one your top priority! May you be blessed today as you seek to honor God with your whole life. Everything else will then fall into place. Pastor Jim.
