THE MAJORITY RULES..........FOR NOW!

There are certain times in our life, our Christian lives, that we lament and our sorrow is great and the world goes on rejoicing around us with its superficial, temporary fun and games.

The scriptures call this conduct or conduct of this present world…aimless!

KNOWING THAT YOU WERE NOT REDEEMED WITH CORRUPTIBLE THINGS LIKE SILVER AND GOLD FROM YOUR…AIMLESS CONDUCT…RECEIVED BY TRADITIONS FROM YOUR FATHERS. 1 PETER 1:18.

Worldly ways, joy, riches, fame, popularity, acceptance and honour…are all aimless and will weigh naught on GOD’S scales of acceptance and recognition. Like the story of the rich man and Lazarus.

SO IT WAS THAT THE BEGGAR DIED AND WAS CARRIED BY THE ANGELS TO ABRAHAM'S BOSOM…THE RICH MAN ALSO DIED AND WAS BURIED....LUKE 16:22.

The beggar went to heaven and the rich man went to the tormenting fire of hell. The beggar surely did lament and the worldly rich man surly did rejoice on earth. Many are they that work their little hearts out on earth for this world and have no thought, care or true serious concern of the life here after…this is what the Holy Bible is all about…the hereafter!

The majority may rule for now or at least seem to rule but as Christians, we should always remember that it is not our day yet. Though we have times of rejoicing in CHRIST and JESUS is such a wonderful and awesome friend, a just King and a tender LORD, a sovereign saviour and mighty GOD and helper in time of need…we still lament. We low as we go, with the seed of life. 1 Samuel 6:7-12.

These are sobering words, spoken in sincerity that we may not fall away in difficult seasons but remembering our LORDS words…we are strengthened and sustained. Psalm 46:1-4.

The remnant will remain…Shear Jashub!

Regardless what comes our way, as followers of the Lamb of GOD we shall do valiantly, for it is He who shall bring down our enemy…He is faithful!

FOR THIS IS A FAITHFUL SAYING…FOR IF WE DIED WITH HIM, WE SHALL ALSO LIVE WITH HIM…IF WE ENDURE, WE SHALL ALSO REIGN WITH HIM…IF WE DENY HIM, HE ALSO WILL DENY US…IF WE ARE FAITHLESS, HE REMAINS FAITHFUL…HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF...2 TIMOTHY 2:11-13.

The majority may rule today and the minority or the remnant may mourn but this will not last forever, be of good cheer brethren…look up for your redemption draws near, nearer than ever before. Amen.
