Denominational Distractions

The Scriptures states In Ephesians 4:4 "There is one body and one spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called, one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all" NIV Holy bible. Where and how did there become so many avenues to faith, God, and or religion? The answer is man and where man resides so does instability, motives, power, opinions, beliefs and so on. Christians everywhere must have and allow God and his word to be the final authority on all matters as it pertains to following God and so should this lost world. You will read in this book how powerful, accurate and divine the word of God is in the first chapter, then you'll be able to make a much more credible decision whether to obey it or not. My prayer is that you choose to obey it and claim it as it is the word of God. The bible describes the word of God as "living and active, sharper than a doubled edge sword able to penetrate the dividing soul and spirit joints and marrow and that it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart" NIV Holy bible. Once we understand and trust the word of God and the flawlessness of its origin, we will be more convinced and confident in our obedience to the word. God loves us so much that he made things extremely simple one way, not hundreds of ways scattering many followers. This is the plan of the lawless one, Satan who takes any opportunity he can to cause disunity and division. However; man in his efforts to rebel and resist the power and authority of the word of God, now look at the state of the world. This book is only a tool to restore such order, but it needs your heart and conviction to be willing and courageous enough to follow it. Acts 17:10 "Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians for they examined the Scriptures everyday to see if what Paul said was true" NIV Holy bible. You are expected to become a Berean in character, a student of God's word, taking no one's word on anything but, researching and studying out the mysteries of God for yourself. Then you will no longer be like children misled blowing like the wind into any and every kind of teaching that exist under the sun. Your confidence will increase; your hope blossom and your certainty in God's plan will provide the clarity only others wish they had.
