James 2:10 (NKJV) 10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.
A child is told don't do that you will get hurt, he responds ok and does it anyway, the results are disastrous he has a burned hand. The consequences for saying one thing and doing another are often painful lessons.
God has clearly said, "Thou shalt not," what then is the excuse for hearing His Word and not obeying, the results are obvious, multitudes of gods, insulting language, abuse of Gods Day, disobedience to parents, murder, adultery, theft, lies and desiring what others have.
To obey God is to reject self, what have we taught our children, what are we showing the world? If we stumble in one point and we are guilty of ALL. Trust Jesus today and He will keep Gods Word through you.
Heavenly Father may all of your Word fill us to over flowing, may those around us know that You are God by what they see in our lives. Let us not cause another to stumble, may we carefully examine our motives that we serve You and not ourselves. Amen
