Our paragraph topic is: (We must give up all for Christ) Part 3.
The battle will come. The war has begun and Christ has issued his decree. The disciples are his generals and they will carry the banners into battle. Repent! Turn back to the one true God. This is their message to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. For they are the first ones. They are on the front lines of the battle. The war will come to their front door. The war will enter their households. The war will divide their families. The war will tear asunder the bonds of the heart. For Christ has not sent peace. He has brought the sword of God upon the people and the the demons of the evil one.
Christ says, "And a man's enemies will be those of his own household." The enemy has taken a foothold in the minds and hearts of the lost sheep. He is entrenched in the lives of the people and will not retreat. His goal is to capture the souls of the people and take them to hell. Even the children will be separated from their parents. Daughers separated from mothers and sons from fathers. Some will accept the message of the kingdom. Some will not. And Satan will be the victor over those souls that do not repent, even in the homes of the believers. For the ties that bind families, the ties that bind brothers, the ties that bind sisters, and parents, and children, and husbands, and relatives will be broken. Some will go one way and some will go another. And those who are able to keep their family bonds and fight the battle they will be the victors over evil.
For Christ has said, "He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." He who is afraid to break the bonds is not worthy to fight. And he who allows the love of family to sway them against Christ is not worthy. Christ ask for your alliegance, he ask for your trust, he asks for your love. Be worthy. Be loving. Be trusting. Aliegn yourself with the true side of light in the life of Christ. Give not partially. Give to the Lord totally and you will be rewarded. He is worthy of leadership. He is worthy of your love. He is truthful to the end and the battle will go on.
Stand on the right side of the Lord and he will stand with you. Trust in the leadership of the Lord and he will lead you to glory and righteousness. Believe in the love that Christ bears for you and you will know peace. Let nothing stand in your way. Throw off the bonds of the world that would hold you in boundage. See the tricks of the enemy and bypass the boobytraps set to destroy you. Let not the family ties bind you to destruction. Be a warrior. Be a soldier. Be a disciple for Christ and join the battle for the kingdom of heaven. Are you worthy? Will your mother or father turn you around because they do not believe? Will the comments and stabs of your children keep you from the kingdom? Stand fast! Trust in the Lord and you will be the victor!! Be a worthy warrior!!
