Introduction:
In Christian Matters Blogspot, we examine current events that affect our Christian lives in light of the word of God to make certain that our perspective reflects biblical views, principles, and standards. This will ensure that we are focused on loving God, our father, and leaving a life that pleases Him in view of the speedily changing values of the world towards Godlessness and the line between Christianity and the world blurring rapidly. Our goal is to live our lives in this present world to please God irrespective of what worldly standards dictates because our main goal is to love God. We will therefore hold tightly to the profession of our faith without wavering because He that called us is faithful Hebrew 10:23. He will hold us unto the end to receive the crown of glory 1st Corinthians 1:8 and we continuously seek His Grace to submit our will to Him. Therefore, we will follow Biblical principles some of which are outlined below rather than worldly standards:
1) Psalm 119:105; “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my pathâ€. We will let the Word of God speak for itself and the Holy Spirit to guide us through the word. We will not interpret the scriptures to fit our perspective but ask for Grace from our father God to help us live according to His will as revealed in the scriptures by the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
2) 1st Corinthians 1:12-14; 12“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.13 These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.†By the Grace of God, the Holy Spirit which knows the mind of God will help and direct us in our daily lives to live according to the will of God.
3) 1st Corinthians 1:23-25;23 “but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.†Christian principles might seem foolish to the world, but we rather be called “Fools for Christ†than be applauded by the world.
4) Proverbs 3 :5-8; 5 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. [7] Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD and depart from evil. It shall be marrow to thine bones and health to thy navel.†As we navigate different areas of life, we prayerfully ask God for guidance in every situation and receive Grace to follow His revealed will.
5) Proverbs 9: 10; The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and fools despise instructions. We will reverence God in every area of our life because our goal is to love and please Him.
6) Proverbs 3:13&18; 13 “Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. 18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is everyone that retaineth her.†Finding wisdom comes from having a personal relationship with our father who is the only wise God.
We seek to follow the above and many other principles revealed in the word of God and by the Holy Spirit because many of us Christians have lived most of our lives pleasing ourselves which is not the way God will want us to live; Proverbs tells us the error of living that way in Proverbs 14:12-12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. We are grateful to still have the opportunity to please God while it is day for night cometh when no man will work. Therefore, we want to focus on pleasing and loving our loving heavenly father.
We are looking to fellowship with serious minded Christians who are really thirsting after righteousness. Joining Inspiration Inn Ministry is voluntary and please do not join if you do not want to focus on living to please God because apparently, you might be offended by our positions on many topics. But our sincere desire is that you ask the Lord to direct your heart to seek and love Him so that you will join us to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.
