Episode Self-Righteousness Leads To Spiritual Blindness: Don't Be Deceived! Cover

Beschreibung

Self-Righteousness leads to spiritual blindness because it overlooks personal accountability. Pride, self-centeredness, envy, jealousy, and lack of empathy is just a few characteristics that someone operating in self-righteousness possess. Appearing to be perfect, when everyone has flaws is the reality of not taking personal accountability. We all are a work in progress, and no one should think more highly of themselves than someone else as to put others down. Instead, we should be willing to see that we all are God's children that are standing in need of His grace and mercy daily.

Episode Man May Be in Charge, But God is in Full Control! Cover

Man May Be in Charge, But God is in Full Control!

God has given man dominion (stewardship not ownership) over the Earth to manage and protect it (Gen. 1:26-28). He also wants us to be good stewards over our lives and our interactions with mankind. But sometimes, the need for power and control overtakes the purpose that God intended for us. The mask of power has tainted the hearts of many deceived by worldly gain, praise and applause, and temporary pleasure. We see the abuse of power destroying so many lives. The mistreatment of the innocent subjected to the greed of one's desires. We witness the crippling effects of pride versus the perfecting power of humbleness. Saying "I was wrong" is often covered up with the need to be right. Needless to say, the need to be "in charge" should carry the need " to do right". This is because regardless of your title, position, influence, etc... God is still in full control. Afterall, to lead means to lead like Jesus not to deceive like Satan. Repentance is the answer that corrects our sinful nature. We have every opportunity to examine our hearts and to follow God. But if not, the cost of disobedience is not cheap. For God will soon shatter the masks of manipulation, oppression, greed, and many other destructive habits by exposing what's done in private to a public stage. The stage of accountability where everyone will reap the harvest that they have sown in due season.
