The Great Schism – by Hal Lindsey
Is it just me or does it seem the mid-term elections will never end? It feels like the victories are being stolen from the victors — in slow motion and plain sight.
With all the shenanigans being thrust upon us by those who lost yet another election, it’s extremely easy to get cynical, even angry.
Especially at frustrating and discouraging times like these, it’s important to take some time to pause and reflect on God’s blessings in our lives. Not just for our benefit, but for His, too. I believe that few things move God’s heart like our genuine gratitude to Him for all He has done for us.
Not only should we reflect on God’s goodness in our own lives, but we should tell our children and others about all He has done.
Most importantly, though, tell Him. Express to God your feelings and how much you treasure everything He has done — and does daily — for you. You may just be surprised by how much happier your holiday will be!
We all receive the benefits of God’s goodness daily, but do we deserve it? In fact, are human beings basically good, evil, or something in-between?
The Bible has a great deal to say about this. If you want to understand yourself and your fellow human beings; if you want to understand your children or your parents; if you want to understand history, politics, literature, psychology, or even rock and roll, you need to know what the Bible says about humanity’s glorious origin and its present sorry state.
And you need to understand our “one hope.”
The story begins, as you might expect, with Creation.
This week, I’m going to discuss again “The Great Schism.”
Jesus Christ became a man and gave His life to span the chasm, the abyss created by The Great Schism. He is our only bridge to salvation and eternal happiness.
