Tell It Like It Is 2
The God I came to know so long ago when just
a child is the same God my mother introduced
to me. I know that God today, and He will be
the same God that I will know tomorrow.
He is not abstract, mysterious, or hidden.
He must be contacted within a context.
I have come to know Him as the God of the Bible.
I choose to never drift outside the Biblical context.
That approach is the foundation of what I have come to
believe, and it is my choice because it is God's mandate.
Personal encounters in dreams, medicines, out-of-body
experiences or the 'unexplainable' must need bow to
the context of Scripture. Even if dressed in tradition
and wearing the name of Christianity, if our endeavors
of religion are pre or post-Biblical or otherwise, it
is 'time-out'. As the Biblical psalmist would say, "Selah".
It's high time we pause.
We are out of bounds;
beyond the rule of play,
and the game is over.
