Scripture of the Day - July 30, 2012

1 Corinthians 2:14  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.


This scripture is a clue as to why so many people are deceived into believing that much of God`s word is `not for today`.  They are thinking with their natural mind. They are following popular opinion. They are blindly  following tradition, not asking where these teachings that are contrary to the Bible came from. So, when the Bible is presented to them they reject it for tradition`s sake. Nowhere in the Bible does it say to sprinkle babies as baptism but millions still do it, nowhere is it written to say the sinners prayer for salvation but millions still do it, nowhere does it say to glorify Mary the mother of Jesus, but millions still do it, and I could go on for pages with teachings that are contrary to the Bible that millions still follow. These people are not spiritually discerned so they listen to tradition and popular opinion. The actual Word of God is foolish to them, it`s not for today. Really?  Well, I have news for you...1Corinthians  1:25  ... the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. So Col 2:8  Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
