Not Sober

9/28/2021

When a person is drunk, they have no recognition of anything, making them easy prey for predators. That is one of the reasons why the word of God discourages men about strong drink. The Lord is simply looking out for the best interest of man. Proverbs 20.1

Many women have been raped, men robbed of their money and physical injuries have occurred as the result of being drunk. That should be more than enough to make a reasonable person reconsider that bottle of alcohol.

I’m very happy to say that I don’t drink and it is a great way to live. I haven’t missed out on anything, other than getting high and acting like a fool and who needs that on their record? Pro 23.29-35.

We Need to Get Rid of It

Humans are trying to escape the corona virus and that is the right thing to do. We have suffered much, but here are some actions I would like to see carried out.

Repentance! Change your ways and seek the law of God. Man has suffered much from the destructive powers of this virus and repentance should be high priority on everyone list.

Vaccinate! The vaccines are the gift of God to protect man from the virus. Get the protection which God has granted.

Mask wearing! The virus is still in the air, so ask yourself. If there is something lurking in the air,
wouldn't it make sense not to inhale it? That is the job of the mask, to prevent us from inhaling this virus.

Social distance! Since we don't know who might be carrying the virus, follow the information and stay clear of people you are unsure of.

Hand washing! Getting rid of germs should be easy to understand for anyone. By touching things outside or inside the home, there will be contact with germs; so keep washing your hands wearing gloves if possible.

I believe man can make the virus a thing of the past, by following this information.

It's Man-Made

When concerning churches, you will have to watch out for man made doctrine.
Matt 7.15. Mark 7.7. Rom 10.1-2. Romans 10.1-3 This kind of dogma
is not from God and it can rob you of liberties which are yours to
keep and will condemn your soul.
2 Peter 2.1-2. Matt 15.13-14.

The only defense one can have against false doctrine, is the knowledge
of the word of God which can be learned by private study Acts 17.11.
Rev 2.2. Jesus said all should be students of the word to be
confident they are hearing truth.
John 5.39 John 8.31-32.

Many people praise churches, unaware that they are rejoicing in
division. However, the bible teaches that there is to be no division.
1 Cor 1.10. That all men should teach the small doctrine and if men
would speak where the bible speaks and remain silent where the bible
is silent, such could be the case.
1 Tim 1.3 1 Tim 4.16. 1 Tim 6.3. 2. Tim 1.13.

We cannot worship God as we please, we must worship God in spirit and
in truth.
John 4.24. Demand book, chapter, and verse for practices which you
might hear in your church.
Ask, where was this belief ever done in scripture?

To hear more on this matter, contact us at the Mt Airy church of Christ.

Personal Choice

By James Baker

“I don’t have any and its my personal choice”, the man said; and he was talking about auto insurance. What do you think about a guy who drives with no insurance coverage? Would you feel safe riding with him or comfortable driving on the same road with him? If not, why
not? “He could have a wreak and it would hurt others”, you say; and that would be 100% correct. I’m sure you wouldn’t be happy because you know this driver isn’t protecting others from his actions. Mk 12.31

I give you this story because it is equal to those who refuse to submit to the gift of God concerning covid. The vaccines are the gift of God in response to the prayers of the faithful who pleaded with Him to do something about the virus. He heard His children and
decided to use vaccination as the answer. Consider these examples where the Lord came to the rescue of His own by using different items.
Gen 8.1-14. Exodus 3.7-20. Numbers 21.6-9. 2 Kings 5.9-14. 2 Kings 20. 1-7.

God has done His part; He has responded to the prayers of the righteous and the cure is here. People need to take the vaccines, practice social distancing, wear a mask and wash their hands. If men will do this, they will be able to outlast the virus, as it goes though mutations. And by the way, repentance needs to be done as well. Luke 13.3
