Be The Bible! Act on It!
Wouldn’t it be great if the Christian life had a check list? A recipe of sorts to provide instructions that we could follow to ensure we were being “good Christians”? Few things in life really work that way. In fact, even recipes followed exactly don’t always turn out. They fail to account for effects of the weather, slight differences in ingredients, variance in oven temperatures, or a number of other factors. And “good” is in the taste buds of the eater. So what does it take to be a good Christian?
Many will say that it means reading your Bible daily, praying at least twice a day, serving at church, tithing, supporting a missionary, evangelizing, and the like. These are all great activities for Christians, but they are not what the Christian life is all about.
A Christian is someone who has been made new in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17) and restored to relationship with God. The Christian life is about getting to know God, enjoying Him and bringing Him glory (Isaiah 43:7; 2 Corinthians 3:18; John 17:1–5, 22). It is true that when we know God certain actions will naturally result. Jesus said, “You are my friends if you do what I command” (John 15:14). But before that He said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. . . . Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. . . . This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete” (John 15:1–11). Obedience—living the “good Christian” life—flows from a loving relationship. And obedience helps us remain in God’s love and therefore experience His joy.
Being a “good Christian” is not about performing certain actions. It is about growing in love for Christ and allowing His Holy Spirit to transform our hearts and lives. Jesus is the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2), the recipe-writer and taste-tester for our lives. As we seek to know God and glorify Him, we also get to enjoy Him (Psalm 73:25—26). The good Christian knows God, enjoys God, and grows in grace.
Bible Verse and Prayer for Today
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
—1 John 1:9
We can be forgiven of our sins, all of them, forever. That’s great news, but there’s even better news. We can be purified of any stain or residue from our past sins. You and I can say, “I am forgiven and purified” — pure as if I had never sinned!” That’s incredible: not only am I forgiven, but I’m also made clean and new again! Not only can I have a fresh start, but I can also have a clean slate. This gift is ours when we are honest with ourselves and with God by confessing our sins and turning from them. The word “confess” our sins means to share our sins with another believer and call what we’ve done by the same name God does. We recognize our sin and turn from it! When we do, new life awaits; let’s refuse to hesitate!
Prayer
Forgiving Father, please forgive me today of my sins. I confess them to you freely and honestly. I hold nothing back from you. I refuse to rationalize away or dismiss any of those sins. Now, please Father, create in me a pure heart — faithful, forgiving, gracious, and filled with only holy intentions.Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. (Psalm 139:23-24), In the precious name of Jesus, I pray. Amen and Amen
Bible Teaching of the Day
Amos ministered as a prophet to Israel at the nation’s apex of prosperity and political power. Sadly, it was a time when true worship of God had been replaced with idolatry, immorality, greed, materialism, injustice, spiritual complacency, and self-reliance. God’s people, both in Judah to the south (Amos’s home) and Israel to the north (Amos’s mission field), faced the Lord’s judgment because they had forsaken Him. In a string of dire predictions of coming doom (Amos 3:1—6:14), Amos offers this one ray of hope: “This is what the Lord says to Israel: ‘Seek me and live’” (verse 5:4).
“Seek me and live” is the central theme and primary message of Amos. The prophet repeats, “Seek the Lord and live, or he will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire; it will devour them, and Bethel will have no one to quench it” (Amos 5:6). Again, he implores, “Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is” (Amos 5:14).
“Seek me and live” is the cry of God’s heart—His appeal for people to repent and pursue His forgiveness while there is still hope of salvation. The message echoes in Isaiah’s invitation: “Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near” (Isaiah 55:6). It resonates in Zephaniah’s call: “Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the Lord’s anger” (Zephaniah 2:3).
“Seek me and live” is God’s invitation to return to “pure and genuine” devotion to the Lord (James 1:27), which is the foundation of our life and relationship with Him. When we forsake the Lord, we must humble ourselves before Him, repent, obey His commands, and walk in His ways again. Only in this way can we receive forgiveness of sins and restoration (2 Chronicles 7:14). The prophets repeatedly warned God’s rebellious children to return to authentic worship, which is our source of spiritual life and the only hope of salvation from the Lord’s judgment and wrath.
In the book of Acts, the apostle Paul informs the people of Athens that God’s desire has always been for all people to seek Him: “His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us. For in him we live and move and exist” (Acts 17:27–28, NLT; see also Psalm 14:2). God is our “fountain of life” (Psalm 36:9). From Him we “draw water from the wells of salvation” (Isaiah 12:3; see also Revelation 21:6; 22:17; John 4:10; 7:38).
We should “continually seek him” (1 Chronicles 16:11, NLT) and “sincerely seek him” (Hebrews 11:6, NLT). The people of Amos’s day claimed to follow God with their words (see Amos 5:14), but their actions and devotions revealed a different truth. Wholehearted pursuit is the key to life with God: “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13; see also Deuteronomy 4:27–29). Like David, we must hunger and thirst for the Lord with our whole being (Psalm 63:1; Psalm 84:2; Psalm 42:1).
“Seek me and live” is God’s time-sensitive opportunity. “Indeed, the ‘right time’ is now. Today is the day of salvation,” says the Lord (2 Corinthians 6:2, NLT). No one is promised tomorrow. We have this one life with breath in our lungs today to seek God and live (Psalm 95:7–8; Hebrews 3:7–15; 4:7).
Not only is “seek me and live” the central theme of Amos and the prophets, but it is also the primary message of the gospel. God loves the people of the world so much that He sent His only Son to die in our place and, through His sacrifice, give us eternal life in Jesus Christ (John 3:16). The apostle John clarifies, “And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life” (1 John 5:11–13).
We must first believe in Him, and then the Christian walk consists of seeking the Lord through a lifelong relationship with Him. Paul expounds, “He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers. But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and instead live lives of wickedness” (Romans 2:7–8, NLT).
Today’s Devotional
The apostle Paul answered a very similar question in Romans 6:1-2, “What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?” The idea that a person could “trust in Jesus Christ” for salvation and then go on living just as he/she lived before, is absolutely foreign to the Bible. Believers in Christ are new creations (2 Corinthians 5:17). The Holy Spirit changes us from producing the acts of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21) to producing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). The Christian life is a changed life because the Christian is changed.
What differentiates Christianity from every other religion is that Christianity is based on what God has done for us through Jesus Christ—divine accomplishment. Every other world religion is based on what we must do to earn God’s favor and forgiveness—human achievement. Every other religion teaches that we must do certain things and stop doing certain other things in order to earn God’s love and mercy. Christianity, faith in Christ, teaches that we do certain things and stop doing certain things because of what Christ has done for us.
How could anyone, having been delivered from sin’s penalty, eternity in hell, go back to living the same life that had him on the path to hell in the first place? How could anyone, having been cleansed from the defilement of sin, desire to go back to the same cesspool of depravity? How could anyone, knowing what Jesus Christ did on our behalf, go on living as if He were not important? How could anyone, realizing how much Christ suffered for our sins, continue sinning as if those sufferings were meaningless?
Romans 6:11-15 declares, “In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness. For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace. What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!”
For the truly converted, then, continuing to live sinfully is not an option. Because our conversion resulted in a completely new nature, our desire is to no longer live in sin. Yes, we still sin, but instead of wallowing in it as we once did, we now hate it and wish to be delivered from it. The idea of “taking advantage” of Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf by continuing to live sinfully is unthinkable. Christians who have no desire to live for Christ, but instead find themselves living lives indistinguishable from those of unbelievers, should examine whether they have ever genuinely received Christ as Savior. “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?” (2 Corinthians 13:5).

The Calm Before What?
Inside
The Strategic Pause In The U.S.-Iran-Israel War
The conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran has entered a strange and unsettling phase. The missiles have not stopped. The threats have not softened. And yet, something has shifted. A pause. A hesitation. A flood of conflicting messages that leave even seasoned observers asking the same question: What is really happening behind the scenes?
At the center of the confusion is Donald Trump, who has claimed that “productive” talks with Iran are underway. But Tehran–particularly voices tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps–has flatly denied any such discussions. Adding to the uncertainty, Iran’s supposed new leadership has yet to clearly present itself on the world stage. Reports and regional observers point to growing ambiguity about who is actually making decisions inside Iran right now.
That raises a critical question few are asking out loud: If talks are happening… who exactly is Trump talking to?
That contradiction is not a minor detail. It is a flashing warning sign that this conflict is no longer just about weapons–it’s about control, perception, and possibly confusion at the highest levels of power.
A War Fought on Two Different Levels
To understand this moment, you have to start with a hard truth: this is not a balanced war.
For the United States and Israel, the objectives are ambitious and definitive–cripple Iran’s nuclear program, dismantle its missile capabilities, and possibly even reshape the regime itself. For Iran, the goal may be far simpler: survive.
That difference changes everything.
A side that needs to win fights differently than a side that simply needs to endure. And history shows that regimes built on survival can absorb enormous punishment while still claiming victory. If even a fragment remains, they will say they stood their ground.
That makes this conflict far more complicated than a typical military campaign. There is no clear finish line–only thresholds of damage and perception.
The “Talks” That May–or May Not–Exist
Now to the most confusing piece of this puzzle: the supposed negotiations.
Trump has said discussions are happening and even delayed planned strikes on Iran’s energy infrastructure for five days to give diplomacy a chance. Iran insists there are no talks at all.
So which is it?
There are three realistic possibilities–and each carries serious implications:
1. Strategic Messaging (Most Likely)
This may be calculated signaling. By projecting diplomacy, the U.S. can cool markets, reduce global panic, and buy time to position military assets. A pause does not necessarily mean restraint–it may simply mean preparation.
2. Indirect Negotiations (Quiet but Real)
It’s entirely possible that talks are happening–but not directly. Backchannel diplomacy through intermediaries is common in this region. Public denial doesn’t mean private communication isn’t happening–it may simply mean neither side wants to appear weak.
3. Narrative Warfare (Perception Over Reality)
In modern conflict, perception can move faster than troops. A statement alone–true or not–can shift markets, influence allies, and pressure adversaries. Both sides may be shaping a story as much as a strategy.
The Global Stakes: Oil, Power, and Market Whiplash
At the heart of this crisis sits one of the most important chokepoints on Earth: the Strait of Hormuz.
Roughly a fifth of the world’s oil flows through it, which makes every headline, every threat, and every “announcement” matter far beyond the Middle East.
When news of potential talks broke, oil prices dropped sharply–an immediate signal that markets believed de-escalation might be coming. At the same time, equities surged, reflecting a sudden wave of optimism.
But here’s the problem: if those talks prove to be exaggerated, misleading, or outright false, prices could snap back just as quickly–if not more violently.
That kind of whiplash is dangerous.
Because when markets no longer trust the signals they’re receiving, instability becomes the norm. Volatility stops being a reaction and starts becoming a pattern. And in a world where energy prices influence everything from transportation to food, that instability doesn’t stay on Wall Street–it hits everyday life.
If no one knows what to believe, uncertainty itself becomes the most powerful force in the global economy.
Israel’s Uncomfortable Position
For Israel, this moment may be the most strategically dangerous of all.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is caught between alliance and necessity. If the United States slows its posture, Israel faces a brutal choice:
Pause and risk appearing weak while attacks continue
Press forward and risk tension with Washington
Gamble on diplomacy that may not fully remove the threat
And there is another layer often overlooked: even if the direct conflict with Iran were to de-escalate, Israel’s fight is unlikely to end cleanly.
Groups like Hezbollah–Iran’s powerful proxy in Lebanon–could continue engaging Israel regardless of any broader agreement. That means Israel may find itself in a prolonged, multi-front conflict even after a “resolution” with Iran is declared.
Israel’s doctrine has always leaned toward decisive, preemptive action. A forced pause–especially one influenced externally–cuts against that instinct and increases the risk of long-term insecurity.
The Illusion of Certainty
It’s tempting to reduce this moment into clean scenarios:
Trump is playing a strategic game
Trump is backing down under pressure
Iran is preparing to concede
But real conflicts rarely follow clean scripts.
What we’re seeing instead is something far more complex: a layered struggle involving military positioning, economic pressure, political signaling, and psychological warfare–all happening at once.
And that’s why so many people feel uneasy right now.
What Comes Next
This pause will not last.
Either it breaks toward diplomacy–unlikely but possible–or it snaps back into escalation, potentially wider and more dangerous than before. The uncertainty around Iran’s leadership, the contradictions in messaging, and the continued positioning of forces all suggest that this is not a resolution–it’s an intermission.
For the United States, the challenge is balancing strength with global stability.
For Iran, it’s survival under pressure–and perhaps internal coherence.
For Israel, it’s deciding whether to wait–or act, knowing the threat may not disappear even if the headlines change.
Because in moments like this, the silence isn’t peace.
It’s positioning.
And what comes next may define far more than just the outcome of a war–it may define how wars like this are fought in the future.
Watched Behind the Wheel:
How Our Cars Are Becoming 24/7 Surveillance Machines
There was a time when getting behind the wheel meant freedom. The open road symbolized independence, privacy, and the simple ability to go where you wanted–without being watched. Today, that vision is quietly fading.
In its place, a new reality is emerging: one where your car is no longer just a machine, but a data-collecting, behavior-monitoring, algorithm-driven observer. And increasingly, it may not just watch you–it may decide what you’re allowed to do.
Recent reporting and federal policy developments tied to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act reveal a growing push to embed advanced driver-monitoring systems into every new vehicle. Section 24220 of the law mandates the development of “advanced impaired driving technology,” designed to passively monitor drivers and prevent operation if impairment is detected.
On the surface, the goal sounds noble: reduce drunk driving deaths and improve road safety. But beneath that goal lies a far more complex–and unsettling–shift in how much of our personal lives are being tracked, analyzed, and potentially controlled.
At the heart of this transformation is artificial intelligence. Modern vehicles are increasingly equipped with inward-facing cameras, biometric sensors, and software capable of tracking eye movement, facial expressions, and even subtle behavioral patterns. These systems can determine whether you’re distracted, tired, or possibly impaired. Some proposals even include technology capable of detecting alcohol levels beneath the skin without requiring a breathalyzer.
Supporters argue this is a technological breakthrough. Human error, after all, is responsible for the vast majority of accidents. If AI can step in and prevent tragedy, why wouldn’t we embrace it?
But that argument assumes a level of trust that many Americans are no longer willing to give.
Because once your car is watching your face, tracking your movements, and analyzing your behavior, a critical question emerges: where does all that data go?
This isn’t hypothetical. Companies like Tesla and General Motors already collect vast amounts of vehicle data, from driving habits to location history. Insurance companies are increasingly offering–or pressuring drivers into–usage-based programs that monitor speed, braking, and time of travel. Drive too fast? Your premium goes up. Brake too hard? That’s another mark against you.
Now imagine that system expanded–and mandated.
Your car could track how fast you drive, how often you accelerate aggressively, how alert you appear, even how long your eyes drift from the road. It could log every trip you take, every stop you make, and every mile you drive. That data could be shared with insurers, manufacturers, or even government agencies, all under the banner of “safety” or “efficiency.”
And it doesn’t stop there.
Several states have already explored or implemented “mileage-based taxation”–a system that charges drivers per mile instead of per gallon of gas. On paper, it’s a response to declining gas tax revenues as electric vehicles become more common. In practice, it requires one thing: constant tracking of your vehicle’s location and movement.
The implications are enormous. A system designed to tax mileage could easily evolve into one that enforces driving limits, restricts travel in certain areas, or penalizes behavior deemed undesirable. Combine that with AI-driven monitoring, and your car begins to look less like personal property–and more like a regulated node in a larger surveillance network.
Even more concerning is the issue of control.
The language in the federal mandate doesn’t just call for monitoring–it calls for intervention. If a system determines that a driver is impaired, it may “prevent or limit motor vehicle operation.” That means your car could decide, in real time, whether you are allowed to drive.
What happens when the system is wrong?
Artificial intelligence is not infallible. False positives are a documented issue across AI systems, from facial recognition to behavioral analysis. A camera misreads your expression. A sensor misinterprets fatigue. An algorithm flags you incorrectly. In a high-speed environment, even a momentary misjudgment could have serious consequences.
Yet under these emerging systems, the machine’s judgment may override your own.
This is where the debate moves beyond safety and into something deeper: autonomy.
For generations, driving has been an expression of personal responsibility. You were accountable for your actions behind the wheel. Now, that responsibility is slowly being transferred to algorithms–systems designed, trained, and controlled by entities far removed from the individual driver.
And history offers a clear warning: once surveillance infrastructure is built, it rarely remains limited to its original purpose.
Data collected for safety can be repurposed for enforcement. Systems designed for assistance can evolve into tools of control. What begins as a well-intentioned effort to reduce accidents can gradually reshape the relationship between citizens, corporations, and the state.
None of this means safety doesn’t matter. It does. Reducing drunk driving and saving lives is a goal everyone can support. But the method matters just as much as the outcome.
Because when privacy is sacrificed in the name of security, it is rarely returned.
The question Americans must now grapple with is not whether technology can make driving safer–it can. The real question is whether we are willing to trade away our independence, our data, and ultimately our control, for that promise.
Once your car is watching you, tracking you, and deciding for you… are you still the one in the driver’s seat?
Pastors Leading the Sheep of a Deadly Cliff !
Unthinkable:
A Church Leader Funding Abortion With Adult Toy Sales
Stories like this are uncomfortable, even disturbing, and many in the Church would rather dismiss them as fringe or irrelevant. But that instinct–to bury our heads in the sand–is precisely what has allowed confusion, compromise, and contradiction to take root in places that once stood firmly on truth. If we are to be people of conviction, we must also be people of accountability. And that means confronting what is happening inside our own churches, no matter how painful it may be.
A recent controversy involving Gerlyn Henry, a self-described Anglican priestess serving in Scarborough, Ontario, has sparked outrage and disbelief among many Christians. Henry, who leads the Church of the Holy Wisdom, announced a partnership with Bellesa Boutique, an adult shop known for selling adult toys and related products. According to her own statements, she is distributing free adult items and gift cards through this collaboration. Even more troubling, she has pledged that proceeds from this partnership will be donated to Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the United States.
The facts alone are jarring. A clergy member–someone entrusted with teaching Scripture, shepherding souls, and upholding the moral teachings of the Christian faith–is openly promoting sexual products while financially supporting an organization that performs hundreds of thousands of abortions each year. For many believers, this is not merely a disagreement over secondary issues; it strikes at the heart of what the Church is called to represent.
Henry’s background adds further context. A graduate of Columbia Theological Seminary, she has previously drawn attention for progressive activism, including public statements on immigration policy and political slogans tied to global conflicts such as supporting Palestinian statehood over all of Israel. But this latest move goes beyond political expression. It represents a direct alignment with causes and industries that historic Christianity has consistently challenged–namely, the commodification of sexuality and the destruction of unborn life.
So the question must be asked: who bears the greatest responsibility for this kind of situation?
First, there is the individual leader. Gerlyn Henry cannot escape accountability for her own decisions. Scripture is clear that teachers will be judged more strictly (James 3:1), precisely because of the influence they wield. To actively promote behavior and institutions that contradict biblical teaching is not a matter of personal preference–it is a matter of spiritual leadership gone astray. Leaders are called not just to reflect culture, but to challenge it when it departs from truth.
However, it would be too easy–and ultimately incomplete–to stop there.
The congregation also plays a role. Churches do not exist in a vacuum; they are communities sustained by the participation and support of their members. When a congregation continues to attend, give, and affirm leadership that openly contradicts core Christian teachings, it sends a powerful message of approval or at least indifference. Silence, in this context, is not neutral. It becomes a form of consent. While not every attendee may agree with such actions, continued support without challenge raises serious questions about collective responsibility.
Yet perhaps the most significant failure lies at the institutional level. The broader Anglican Church–particularly its progressive branches–has increasingly struggled with questions of doctrinal authority and discipline. When there are no meaningful consequences for clergy who openly defy historic Christian teaching, it creates an environment where anything can be justified under the banner of inclusion or modern relevance. Church discipline, once considered a vital part of maintaining doctrinal integrity, has in many places been abandoned altogether.
This absence of accountability does not just affect one congregation or one leader. It shapes the culture of the entire denomination. It signals to both believers and the watching world that the Church no longer has clear convictions–or worse, that it no longer believes them to be important.
The result is confusion. And confusion, left unchecked, leads to erosion.
This story is not just about one priestess in Canada. It is a reflection of a broader crisis facing many parts of the modern Church: the tension between cultural acceptance and biblical fidelity. When the desire to be seen as relevant overtakes the call to be faithful, the Church risks losing its distinct voice altogether.
So where does that leave us?
It leaves us with a responsibility–individually and collectively–to examine what we are supporting, what we are tolerating, and what we are willing to confront. Accountability is not easy. It requires courage, humility, and a willingness to speak truth even when it is unpopular. But without it, the Church cannot fulfill its mission.
We cannot pretend these issues do not exist. We cannot dismiss them as isolated incidents. And we certainly cannot remain silent.
Because what is at stake is not just reputation–it is the very integrity of the Church itself.

Bonus Teaching for the Child of God !!
Every generation has its challenges in trying to live the Christian life. Teenagers and young adults may face greater struggles than those in other age categories because new temptations clash with inexperience, and that can translate into disaster. Young people are still learning how to handle the world. Without the wisdom and life experience older generations rely on to overcome temptation, a young person can feel at a loss when pursuing godliness in an ungodly world. However, young people who want to follow Christ can avoid many pitfalls by following a few instructions:
- Recognize that you are in a learning season of life. Our culture praises self-expression and urges the young to voice their opinions at every opportunity. While we all have the right to an opinion, wise young people recognize that they may not have the wisdom that many older people have earned, so they choose to listen and learn. Proverbs 13:20 says, “Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.” Rather than automatically discounting anything the older generation has to say, a young person desiring to live a Christian life will welcome the lessons learned through the experiences of others. By asking questions, challenging assumptions, and comparing ideas with the principles in God’s Word, you will build a foundation for a well-constructed opinion that is worth voicing.
- Remain vigilant over the lust of the flesh and sexual sin (1 John 2:15–16). Young people must learn to handle passions, new feelings, and intense desires as they are in the process of becoming adults. The biological surges can feel overwhelming, especially to young men. Sexual lust can hit with such force that a young person who desires to live for Christ may feel out of control at times. God understands, and He has given detailed instruction in His Word to help keep those passions from ruining your life (1 Corinthians 6:18).
Romans 13:14 says, “Put on Christ and make no provision for the flesh and its lusts.” We “make provision” when we give our weak and sinful flesh more credit than it deserves. When we put ourselves in compromising situations and then expect ourselves to do the right thing at the last minute, we are making provision for our flesh. For example, a young person who attends a party hosted by acquaintances known for their drinking, drug use, and immoral behavior is making provision for the flesh. Intentions of doing the right thing in such a circumstance often get swept away by peer pressure or curiosity about sin. Wise people know their own weaknesses and steer clear of situations that might exploit them.
- Recognize and reject idealistic expectations. Idealism creates unrealistic assumptions that can lead a young person into making poor decisions with lifelong consequences. Idealism about marriage, government, and finances can defeat the Christian life of a young person, as can idealism about the church. Many Christian young people leave the church because it does not live up to their expectations of what “church” should be. When they do so, they unwitting leave themselves open for attack by their enemy, Satan (1 Peter 5:8). God designed Christian fellowship and the preaching of the Word to help shape and mature believers (Hebrews 10:25), and plugging into a local, Bible-teaching church is vital for a young person’s spiritual growth. Any church will have flaws, but God may want to use a youthful perspective to help that church flourish. He will also use the flaws of that church to build character and wisdom into a young person who wants to live a Christian life.
- Study. Study. Study. Paul instructed his protégé Timothy to study diligently so that he would learn to handle the Word of God rightly (2 Timothy 2:15). Our world is starving for truth. God’s Word is the truth it needs (John 17:17). The best way to thwart the enemy’s deception is to study God’s Word for oneself. Read it, listen to it, cross-check one verse against another, seek out teachers who thoroughly know and honor God’s Word, and apply what you learn. A young person who lives faithfully by the principles of God’s Word will gain the wisdom and maturity to impact the world (Psalm 92:12–14).
A young person can live the Christian life the same way an older person does. Christian living begins with a genuine surrender to the lordship of Jesus. It continues with growth as we come to understand who we are in Christ and all that means for our daily lives. We daily submit ourselves to the Lord for His purposes and His pleasure. When we sin, we quickly confess and reject it so that our hearts remain in close connection to God (1 John 1:9). We keep our eyes on Christ and “press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called [us] heavenward in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:14).
