“…let us go on…not laying again the foundation…”~ Heb. 6:1
If these Hebrew believers were guilty of not going on in building upon their foundation, then we modern day Gentile believers are guilty of just the opposite. We bypass the foundational in our rush to get to what we believe are more important things in the Christian life. Is it any wonder, then, present day saints, who are in such a hurry to build their spiritual beach cottages, erect them on sand? And it’s no surprise when their lives crumble under the slightest adverse breeze.
Many saints today need not go on, but rather, step back. I hear Christians say to those who have “blown it,” so to speak, that they need to “move on” with their lives. This is true, considering one has first righted any wrongs and corrected their mistakes.
Jesus said we are to do certain things but not at the expense of leaving other things undone. It is possible to walk and chew gum at the same time.
Just outstanding, Dad. Thank you.
