7) Can you decipher this nursery rhyme?
Complications arose during an investigation of dietary
influence; one researcher was unable to assimilate adipose
tissue, and another was unable to consume tissue consisting
chiefly of muscle fiber. By a reciprocal arrangement
between the two researchers, total consumption of the
viands under consideration was achieved, thus leaving
the original container of the viands devoid of contents.

"The Delete Button You Can't Reach"
ReplyDeleteGalatians 6:7

So many times, the latest technology becomes a great
blessing and a great curse. For example, are cell phones a blessing
or a curse? Yes. It's great that I can reach anyone or they can reach
me basically anytime or anywhere. And it's terrible that people can
reach me anytime, anywhere. How about e-mail? Fast, efficient
communication from wherever you are to wherever they are. But then
there's "spam" - the e-mail equivalent of junk mail. You can wake up
to dozens of new e-mails, including a bunch you don't want. But
there's this button on your computer that really comes in handy. It
just says "delete." If you don't like what you're getting, delete. If
you don't want to keep something, delete. If you wrote something you
decide you don't want to send, delete. One key stroke and what you
don't want is gone.
Here's the problem. Because we live in a world where it's so
easy to delete, we may start thinking we can delete things that, in
fact, aren't going to go away. Like the consequences of our actions
for example. The payback for the things we've done wrong. The
judgment of Almighty God for making ourselves number one instead of
Him. There are some things you just can't delete. Delay, maybe. Delete, never.
That's guaranteed, actually, by God Himself in our word for
today from the Word of God in Galatians 6:7. It's one of the laws of
the universe, and no one is so smart or even religious enough to
escape it. God says, "Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man
reaps what he sows." Sow corn, you'll get corn whether you want corn
or not. Sow wheat, you'll get wheat. Sow sin, you'll get judgment;
consequences here and eternal consequences forever.
Any farmer can tell you that you don't reap the harvest as
soon as you sow the seed. But make no mistake. The harvest is delayed
but it's inevitable. In the case of our disobedience toward God, the
Bible spells out the harvest in these chilling words: "The wages of
sin is death" (Romans 6:23). That death is life here without the God
who makes life work and life after death without God in hell.
There are short-term, "undeletable" consequences for sin.
Deceit today, discredited and un-trusted tomorrow. Indulging your
lust today, scarred relationships and disgusting bondage tomorrow.
Sex outside of marriage today, the real thing ruined tomorrow. Trash
talk today, loss of respect and reputation tomorrow. But far worse
than those consequences is the eternal death penalty our sin carries
with it. No religion on earth, and no amount of your goodness can
possible delete your sin from God's book. Only the One whose laws
we've broken can delete your sin and cancel your hell. The delete
button for human sin is beyond human reach.
The Bible declares our only hope in these words: "Christ
carried our sins in His body on the tree" (1 Peter 2:24). When Jesus
said "Father, forgive them" from His cross, He was including you. If
you will abandon all other hope for being forgiven and you pin all
your hopes on Him. The Bible says He is "a God ... who pardons sin"
and who will "hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea"
(Micah 7:18, 19). Imagine. Every sin, every wrong thing you've ever
done, deleted by one stroke of God's hand because you reached out to
Jesus, His Son, and you said, "Rescue me. You're my only hope!"
If that's what you want, then I want to help you take this
step into a love relationship with Jesus Christ. I want to invite you
to our website where we've provided a simple explanation of just how
to get started with Him. Just go to yoursforlife.net. Or I'd be glad
to send you my free booklet Yours For Life if you'll just let us know
you want it. Just call us at 877-741-1200.
The awful harvest for your sin was taken by Jesus on the
cross, so you could make the greatest trade in the world - eternal
death for eternal life.
