The soul hardly ever realizes it, but whether he is a believer or not, his loneliness is really a homesickness for God.

scripture
Acts 10:42-43
“And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he (Jesus Christ) is the one ordained by God to be judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness that every one who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”

You must question. You must hold what you are taught up to the Word of God. If you do not, you will be deceived.
scripture
Colossians 2:8
See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy,

scripture
Isaiah 29:13-14
The Lord says: "These people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship of me is made up only of rules taught by men.
Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish."

Love, it will push you around
It will make you a poor man
Change your picture of heaven, heaven
Love, it will make you a man
It will make you a child again

Jonah 1:1-3
The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai: "Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me." But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD.

I thank God for our youth pastor. And he taught us from day one, “To accept Jesus Christ is a wonderful thing and forgiveness of sins, there is nothing you can do to add to it. But you have to understand that when you do that, your life is over. You have no more rights. You do not have the right to live out your dream, your goal, your ambition, your plan for your life. You must walk away. You cannot accept him and hold on to those things that motivate, and energize you. It cannot be done. He comes in as the Lord Jesus Christ. He doesn’t come in as extra baggage. He will not be added to your life. He comes in to take over or he does not come in.
