1 John 1:5 (NKJV) 5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.
The Bible is the message, the world is a distraction, our lives are either light or they are dark. We are the canvas on which is revealed the strokes of the paint applied, by ourselves or the Master. A child prayed, "Lord make me good, and if at first you don't succeed please try again."
It is me who is responsible for how I act, the tools are available for me to understand the process, what I do with the wealth of information is up to me. Can I make my self good, in part yes, can I be better than I am, most assuredly, will that get me into Heaven, no!
The presence of Jesus Christ in the believer is the ONLY way to enter Heaven, "There is no other name given under Heaven whereby men may be saved." Acts 4:12 I am answerable to the Creator when I take my last breath, for what I have done in this life, and that alone dictates where I will spend eternity.
Where will you spend eternity, you already know. "God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all."
Heavenly Father, help us to see clearly your instructions for living in this life. May we devote ourselves to seeking You, and let every Word You have given find its way in us. Amen
