You can have two friends. You can have two hobbies, you can even have two jobs. But you can’t have two teachers.
Slavery is absolute, does it demand everything that is yours?, all your time, all your fidelity, all your work, all your heart, all your soul. You can try to have two amos, but it won’t work, dedicating yourself to one and despising the other.
- You may even think that you can be a Christian.
- Love Jesus.
- Go to church and be passionate about the gospel and have a little connection with money.
- Or flirt with pride.
- Or enjoy the fruits of the sexual revolution on weekends.
- Going to work.
- You can’t marry Jesus and jump the fence.
What did you do for a living? Why did you live?What can’t you live on?” If I did, would I be happy?What fills the void?
Do you remember the parable of the sower and the earth?Each plant grows a little more and gets a little closer to achieving it. The one that looks good for a long time is the plant that grows from the seed sown among the thorns. for a while, but then he was suffocated by the mistakes of wealth and the worries of life. Lots of young people? Promises are exhausted by the worries of this world and the madness of life. It happens all the time. Maybe it’ll happen to me.
You can’t serve two years. Jesus does not seek a distribution of 60-40%, demands your total loyalty, total abandonment, incomparable worship, do not swallow the lies you have heard about money, pride and sex, only God gives you real value. Only God gives you true encouragement, only God will make you truly special and truly loved, only God can give you true security. If you can only serve a lord, be sure to choose wisely.
