Trusting God Alone

Trusting God Alone in a Push Button World

favorite time of year

Brrr, it’s cold outside, and it will get colder!

Better turn up the heat in the house.

Are you feeling those cooler temperatures too?

Bring it on  🙂

Without a doubt, this is my favorite time of year.

Wearing a warm sweater, sitting in front of a cozy fireplace, and stirring a cup of hot chocolate – all bring back fond memories of seasons past and that the holidays are just around the corner.

I just checked the temperature and we’re in the 30s.

As I pushed the button to turn on our fireplace . . .

Wait, what did I just say?

 As you know, if you have an electric fireplace, all you do is push the power button and the flame will spark up immediately.

Voila, a roaring fire to keep you warm.

push button world

If you think about it, we’re living in that kind of “push button” world.

With the simple push of a button, you can not only light a fireplace but,

Start a car

Remotely turn on lights in your house

Buy an expensive painting online

Turn on autopilot and fly a plane

And that’s just some of the things that you can do.

You can also push a button to start a 3D printer and “print out” an actual human body part like an ear or a nose.

Wow!

Actually, that’s amazing or creepy, depending on how you look at it.   😉

Trusting God alone in a push button world is key.

We’re to live in the world, but not for it.

Trusting God Alone For Our Eternity

we are not gods

As amazing as the technology is that we have today, we are not gods.

Not even close.

We can’t simply push a button and, at a time that “we” decide, transport ourselves to Heaven at our deathbed.

Beam me up, Jesus!

There will never be a push button that can eternally save us.

Salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone.

trusting God alone

Only Jesus Christ died for our sins. He was buried, and He rose from the dead to bring eternal life for those who “receive and follow Him.”

Anyone promoting the man-made ideology that there are many ways to get to heaven is preaching a false gospel.

Get out of a church like that as soon as possible.

As the dire and prophesied events in our world start to heat up, people living during that time will want a quick fix.

But here’s the thing: No button, no antichrist, no man, no religious leader, has the eternal solution to peace and joy forever.

There’s only one who does: Jesus Christ.

Beware the counterfeits.
