It Is Time For A Change
Some of the presidential candidates have been calling for change. Each one promises to change things. We want to believe them and we want to think that they will somehow do what they promise. However many are skeptical that they will change anything at all. Our past history has taught us this reality. And whether we agree with any candidate or not, do we realize that a change is necessary? The change that I am promoting is not one of national politics, rather a change in the hearts of men and women everywhere. I ran across
this quote recently, and think it is right on. I do not know who wrote it.

“In my humble opinion the best thing we can do to save
this country from God's judgment is to be on our knees
in prayer and use our time to teach others the good news
of Christ. The message of the N.T. is not 'change your
government's but spread the gospel message of the Cross
of Christ so that individuals are changed by the Cross. Lift Him up!”

For too long, the majority have lived their lives without the relationship
that God calls us to be in with Him. God through His word can change hearts
and lives for the better. If you have neglected to be faithful to God, it is time for a change. If you have claimed to be a Christian, but have lived your life
without God’s influence, please take the warnings of our Savior seriously.
If you claim to be a Christian yet do not live like one, you are a hypocrite, please read Matthew 23. Yes it is time for a change. Remember that spiritual change will not come from a politician, but happens in our hearts when we put our trust in God. Read Psalm 118:8-9. You may support our next president, but do not look for them to effect changes in the hearts of men. Only Christ can do that.
Believe on Christ, (Acts 16:31),Repent of your sins (Acts 8:22). Confess His name (Romans 10:9-10) Be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38, Mark 16:15-16). Be faithful unto death (Revelation 2:10).
May God bless you in your study of His word.
