There Is A Lot Of Talk These Days About The Importance Of Following The Science As A Means Of Finding

There is a lot of talk these days about the importance of “Following The Science” as a means of finding 'truth' and determine the best way to make good decisions. As helpful as science may be, all people have a much better internal guide that always points to what ultimately is true, and that is our CONSCIENCE.

The Latin root of science is scientia which is Knowledge and 'Knowing,' and the prefix 'CON' means “with,” so conscience literally means for one to KNOW-WITH — and that ever present person is the still, quiet voice the Holy Spirit.

You see, as today’s scripture says, God writes on our heart what we need to know, and our conscience confirms this, but at this point once you know what is right, what will be your decision?

The later half of this verse gives us the answer.

Either you will follow this revelation of knowledge, or fight against it and ignore the Spirit’s direction and 'accuse and excuse' the truth you which deep-down you KNOW is RIGHT.

Friend, we ALL have that still small voice speaking to us every day in every circumstance of life. When you hear that voice, do not allow yourself to be mislead by so-called 'facts' or 'logic!' Instead, always turn to the RIGHT and follow your CONSCIENCE and it will NEVER lead you astray.

Here are some really solid practices from Billy Graham for living a successful Christian Life!

1.Read your Bible daily. Do not be content to skim through a chapter merely to satisfy your conscience. Hide the Word of God in your heart. It comforts, guides, corrects, encourages – all we need is there.

Learn the secret of prayer. Prayer is communicating. Every prayer that you pray will be answered. Sometimes that answer may be “Yes” and sometimes “No,” and sometimes it is “Wait,” but nevertheless it will be answered.

Rely constantly on the Holy Spirit. We know that the Holy Spirit prays for us (Romans 8), and what a comfort that should be to the weakest of us. Stand aside and let Him take over all the choices and decisions of your life.

Attend church regularly. The visible church is Christ’s organization upon earth. Christians need one another, we need to gather together to worship God.

Be a witnessing Christian. We witness in two ways: by life and by word – and the two, where possible, should go hand in hand.

Let love be the ruling principle of your life. Jesus said to those who followed Him, “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another” (John 13:35).The greatest demonstration of the fact that we are Christians is that we love one another.

Be an obedient Christian. Let Christ have first place in all the choices of your life.

Learn how to meet temptation. Temptation is not sin. It is yielding that is sin. Let Christ through the Holy Spirit do the fighting for you.

Be a wholesome Christian. Our lives and appearance should commend the Gospel and make it attractive to others.

Live above your circumstances. Don’t let your circumstances get you down. Learn to live graciously within them, realizing the Lord Himself is with you.

Almost everyone today has email, and one of the most popular email services is Google’s 'gmail,' however there is another 'mail ' account that everybody has but not everyone reads, and that is their G-MAIL account — or more specifically — their G(OD)-MAIL account called THE BIBLE.

You see, God has written a message that we can receive every day, and what makes this different from regular email is that no matter how many times you open it, you’ll see and read something that you didn’t see before. Like gmail it’s free, but unlike gmail it doesn’t auto-magically pop up on your phone, tablet, smart watch or PC. Instead you have to make a conscious effort to both open it and read it. When you do — as today’s verse says — you’ll be blessed in ways that all the emails in the world could never bring you!

Friend, there is an important message waiting for you to read in you G-Mail every day. Don't hit DELETE! Because there is literally some Good News in there for you to discover today.

When we were first learning to read we had to pay close attention over each letter and word to comprehend the meaning. This also applies to the Word of God because at a casual glance, it may not make a lot of sense and requires a concerted effort:

“I have declared my ways, and You answered me; Teach me Your statutes. Make me to understand the way of Your precepts; so shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.“ Psalm 119:26-27

God’s Word is alive and active, and our bodies actually respond to it when it is read out loud! I can testify to this personally because I was very sick and I faithfully read God’s healing scriptures out loud and it was not long before He had healed me and now I am Perfectly Well!!! Praise God!

How did this happen? Well, I believed every word I read and professed it daily and often hourly out loud so that God would hear me, but just as important I also believed and expected in faith that God would heal me. In fact the Word instructs us to do so:

“My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eye; Keep them in the midst of your heart For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.” Proverbs 4:20

God works in the way he works. For whatever reason we may not always be healed BUT we are instructed to meditate and regurgitate his Word. The blessing may come in a variety of other ways, as he seems fit.

My dear friend, trust in the Lord and put all your faith in Him, not just some of it. Let His Word sink deep down inside of you and desire to know it more than anything in all of this world. Read His Word every day and before you go to sleep and when you first wake up and you will be amazed at what happens inside of you!

CENSORSHIP is not only ALIVE & WELL, but growing in an age of 'political correctness.' Many things on a variety of topics are restricted or banned because they are deemed offensive, hurtful, bigoted - or best yet - FAKE NEWS.

Given that, if the Bible was published for the first time on social media today, no doubt it would get slapped with a warning of 'Inappropriate Content,' -or- 'Contains Offensive Material.' Television Cable commentators most likely would describe it as violent, misogynist, and racist. School libraries would exclude it as harmful and scholars would mock it for its many so-called 'contradictions & inaccuracies.' Religious leaders and philosophers would also point out that there are many ways to the divine…and not just ONE.

Oh! Excuse me! That’s happening NOW and calls to ban or limit the Bible or even it’s most benign and helpful quotations often get a 'thumbs down' rating by social media editors. Even more sadly, the majority of people see a Bible verse quotation like the ever ubiquitous 'John 3:16' and meet it with an endless parade of rolling eyes and snarky gaffes.

On the contrary, The 'Word of God' - THE BIBLE - tells us that it is LIFE & LIGHT, and that Jesus himself is that “WORD.” Instead of being Banned and criticized, it should instead be BORN and celebrated as TRUE NEWS.

So what’s your Conclusion? Censor or Celebrate?
