Or, as one Preacher worded it, “Where the Slip Begins!”

What drift, what slip?

The sometimes (at first) nearly imperceptible “drift” from the anchorage of the Chrisitan Faith, for the Things we believe!

All such apostasy (a Greek word meaning a “standing apart, a “stepping away”) begins with a questioning (then soon a denial) of some Portion of Holy Scripture!

DO NOT LET THE ASSAULTS OF THE WORLD “CRACK” YOUR CONFIDENCE IN THE WORD OF GOD!

RATHER, LET YOUR BIBLE “BLAST” THE LIES OF SATAN INTO OBLIVION, AS FAR AS YOUR LIFE IS CONCERNED ANYWAY!

Do not let Satan shake your confidence in Holy Writ.

Let your Bible be a “sledge-hammer” to crush the deceptive philosophies of the world. (The devil is a liar, remember! John 8:44 … “When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”)

Instead, let Jeremiah 23:29 prevail in your thoughts, in your heart … “Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a HAMMER that breaketh the rock in pieces?”

Way back in the Garden of Eden, the devil placed a question mark where God had demanded a period! And the Issue? God’s Word!

Genesis 3:1 … “Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, YEA, HATH GOD SAID …?”

See the question mark?

Paul in Romans 3:4 addresses this issue: “Yea, let God be true, but every man a liar.”

NEVER ALLOW ANYTHING TO CAST EVEN A SHADOW OF A DOUBT ACROSS THE PAGES OF THE WORD OF GOD, THE SCRIPTURE OF TRUTH!

Read this verse in conclusion … “To this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.” Thus saith the Lord! (Isaiah 66:2)

Big difference between trembling at (honoring, respecting, reverencing) the Bible and questioning the Bible!

Be careful!

Don’t slip!
