Just came back from an great YM service. =)
Hosea's message was... mind-blowing. Especially the last bit. Not commiting adultery doesn't make you faithful... it's pure devotion which qualifies you as faithful. And the essence of Christianity is not just a relationship... it's a discipleship relationship. It's about... denying the flesh and taking up the cross.
One verse hit me real hard. Luke 9:26. "Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.". I was like... ouch. Sorry Lord. Have i submitted my all to Him? My studies, my families, everything else i have? Ouch.
Luke 9:23, "Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.""
Deny the flesh.
