OBEY JESUS!
Many people who love Jesus celebrate the day Jesus was born
called Christmas and celebrate the day Jesus was resurrected from
the dead called Easter. Frequently they celebrate Christmas and
Easter by attending religious worship services. Often ignoring that
Jesus stated, “THEIR WORSHIP OF ME IS WORTHLESS.
THE THINGS THEY TEACH ARE NOTHING BUT HUMAN
RULES” [Mk 7:7 NI]. Jesus expressed frustration with people who
say they love and respect Him when He asked, “WHY DO YOU
CALL ME, `LORD, LORD,' AND DO NOT DO WHAT I
SAY?” [Lk 6:46 NI] Or as a modern translation put it “WHY ARE
YOU SO POLITE WITH ME, ALWAYS SAYING ‘YES, SIR,’
AND ‘THAT’S RIGHT, SIR,’ BUT NEVER DOING A THING
I TELL YOU?” [Lk 6:46 MSG] Calling Jesus our “LORD” or
master is of no value if we do not obey Him. When Jesus said, “BY
THEIR FRUIT YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THEM” [Mt 7:20
NI] it definitely applies to obeying Him. Religious customs and
feel good moments are of no value if we do not obey Jesus. Do
you obey Jesus?
