From Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll |
Words seem to have lost their meaning nowadays, particularly the vocabulary of Christianity. The meanings of God and Jesus are up for grabs, and God's attributes and works are as malleable as a ball of play-dough to be shaped according to our whims.
There are those who would say, "Shouldn't we take people at their word? We shouldn't be judging their hearts." But I would respectfully reply that we are charged with more than taking someone just at their word. We've been charged to judge a tree by its fruit. (Matthew 7: 15-20)
Agreed!
ReplyDeletei totally agree with you Persis. All must be weighed against God's revealed word.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't have been said better, sister! Great post!
ReplyDeleteAmen, Persis!
ReplyDeletePersis,
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful!!
I love this Persis! I never saw Humpty Dumpty in that light before!! And all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't put Humpty together again. Such is the fall down the slippery slope of changing the meaning of God's Word.
