CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVES

There are two types of people in the world: believers (Christians) and non-believers (non-Christians). Christians must look at things from two (2) perspectives: 1. The Holy Bible; and 2. The World! Christians are governed by the Holy Bible in ALL aspects of existence and are not of this world (John 15:19). Non-Christians are governed by the world’s ideals and laws and are of this world (John 8:44). As Christians we are to use the bible to show us what we are and use the world as a reminder of what we are not.

While Christians are here on earth, we must determine everything based on the standard set by the Holy Bible, not the standard set by the world. This is why it is important for us to know what the Bible says. We cannot determine how to govern our entire existence here if we are ignorant of the contents of our ultimate guide-book. We are urged to study it (2 Timothy 2:15) and to write its words on our hearts (Proverbs 7:1-3).

We are to input the words of the Holy Bible into our hearts and mind as if we are entering data into a computer. The reason for this is that SIN, the greatest obstacle to our inheritance in Heaven, lies at the door trying to seduce us like it seduced Cain (Genesis 4:7). Also, the devil is like a roaring lion (1 Peter 5:8) trying to drag us down to hell with him.

We are not without help in this struggle! In fact we have the greatest helper ever (Hebrews 13:6). And where the Holy Bible is concerned, we have the greatest interpreter and teacher (John 16:13). Be encouraged, be obedient and be faithful because God is faithful to us (1 Corinthians 1:9).

“Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.” 1 Corinthians 1:3
