You were once a tiny embryo in your mother’s womb. See what you have become today. If something big starts big, it calls for concern because everything big starts little. This teaches us to encourage little beginnings. If one’s faith must grow, it has to start in a weak form.
We are in a danger zone where everyone lies to his neighbour (Psalm 12:2). This is the kind of situation we find ourselves in the world today. This means that everything you hear or see must be examined in the light of God’s Word. What do I mean by examining things in the light of God’s Word? I mean, whatever you hear, always ask, ‘What does God – I mean, the Word of God say about the situation?’
Romans 14:23 – “…everything that does not come from faith is sin.” What are the things that do not come from faith?
- Whatever we hear that is not examined in the light of God’s Word does not come from faith.
- Whatever we see that is not examined in the light of God’s Word does not come from faith.
- Whatever we read that is not examined in the light of God’s Word does not come from faith.
Therefore, whatever you hear, whatever you see and whatever you read should be examined in the light of God’s Word!
