SACRED COWS

How many of  you have heard of “Sacred Cows”? In the Hindu Religion the Cows are Sacred. Even though people may be starving; the killing of those Cows is  forbidden!   Before thinking how strange that is, let me share some sacred Cows in our modern society. Some people are  quick to blame God for bad things (they call “An Act Of God”, an accident or lightning strikes).  When they receive a bunch of money it is due to luck or the “Thank Goodness” god (?).  There is much wickedness in the world today yet many believe  that God Loves everybody, it is a Sacred Cow belief held by many. God hates the wicked, He is angry with them all the time, the ones in Hell are not the objects of His Love. (Psalm 11: 5)

The problem is that the Word of God is not honored. If God Loves all, how can anyone be separated from His Love and go to Hell? ( Romans 8: 35-39 ) Those verses are for true believers, God Loves them and  they cannot be separated from Him.  He who has the Son, has Eternal Life. He who does not have the Son, does not have Life but the Wrath of God abides upon him! God does not Love everybody, we receive His Love by believing in Jesus through Faith. The Lord chose the “Foolishness” of the preaching of the Word, the Good News of our salvation to save us. It is foolishness to the World, but to us who are being Saved, it is the Wisdom and Power of God!

What You’re Eating or What’s Eating You!

Did you know God’s Words says a righteous person eats to live and a wicked person lives to eat? (Isaiah 22:13) Jesus is the Bread that came down from Heaven to give us eternal life. The food we eat daily cannot give us this. Jesus declared whoever believed in Him would never die because they spiritually ate the Bread from Heaven. He said that by eating of the Bread from Heaven one time we would receive eternal life through faith that was delivered unto the Saints (every believer is a Saint).

The Word of God tells us “The life is more than food”. (Luke 12:23) What life? We all are grateful to be alive. God has created each one of us unique. No one else is like you. You have your own personality. Is this the life Jesus is speaking of?

James 4: 14 Says our lives are like a vapor that appears for a while, then vanishes away!  Death is the enemy of the human race. When facing death some may be fearful while others are at Peace. Jesus said, “I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He who believes in Me will live, even if he dies.” (John 11: 25-26) This is the “Sure” Hope of the believer! “Where O death, is your Victory? Where, O death, is your Sting?”  (1 Corinthians 15: 55 NIV)   Through Faith in Jesus, the believer receives eternal, everlasting life, and a peace that passes all understanding, which is guarding their hearts and minds. “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest”. (MT 11: 28 NASB)  Truly this IS the life better than the food!

My prayer is that those who do not have this life will read the Gospel, the Good News of their Salvation, repent of their sins, and come to Jesus.  “Whoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be Saved” (Romans 10:13)  It is through faith that we eat the Bread from Heaven, Jesus.
