Christians at 2000

Let's look at something interesting happening in today's Christian society.

1. Under grace
2. Not under the law
3. Righteousness vs unrighteousness
4. Mercy
5. Healing

And the list grows and grows. But one thing you don't see on the above list is Christian maturity.

You see for some weird reason Christians today think/believe they are not under the law so they don't have to obey the law. This gives reason to Christians breaking laws meant to save lives and protect others in society. Allow me to pose a question to you the reader;

I'm not under the law but grace this means....

#1. I don't have to come to a complete stop at a stop sign.

#2. I don't have to obey the speed limit. Thus if I want to go down the road 15 miles per hour or more above the speed limit I will do it.

#3. I will put as many people in my car/truck/van as I please jeopardizing  the welfare and safety of others.

#4. I don't have to pay any tickets received because I'm right and they are wrong.

#5. I don't have to stop at a yellow light even though I have time to stop.

So many misconceptions in Christian society it is shocking.

So let me try to put the record straight.

A. Yes we are no longer under the law. But the law you refer to is laws written in the days of Moses.

B. Yes you are under grace. But that does NOT give us license to disobey the laws of man. UNLESS it goes against Biblical principles.

C. While your under the dispensation of Grace it gives you no right to be rude.
Example: playing games/ texting/accepting or making calls on your cellphone while at church or even at a Bible study.

Not long ago I overheard a fellow believer say the following,  "Man that guy can't seem to take no for an answer."

The only "no" I think any Christian should be willing to say is no to Satan and his evil ways.

What did Jesus have to say, "Render unto Caesar what is Caesar and unto God what is Gods." Matthew 22:21;

Is it meant for any Christian to disobey the laws of man? No it does not!
If the speed limit is 70mph then you drive your automobile accordingly. If the sign says stop then you must come to a complete stop.
Certain laws of the land are meant to keep you and me safe. This means YOU have a responsibility to keep any and all passengers safe.

Lastly,  and the following is about your smartphone/ tablet.
If think its alright to use your cellphone while driving it is NOT a grand idea. I have seen drivers using their cellphones all the while weaving in and out of lanes as if the driver were doing drugs.
I have seen accidents that involved distracted drivers. The end result? Well you can be sure there was many a families grieving.

While you are not 2000 years of age you still need to obey the Lord and mind the laws of the land.

Let us(Christians) always remember that we are to be a light unto a lost and dying world.
And we are to be an example to younger Christians who are maturing in the faith.
