I Refuse to Do It!

We are leaving in changing times, which I am very aware. Though for me to be Christ-like means I must be like Christ. The Bible says "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever." That means that being like Christ means, though everything around me changes I do not change.

This is not a post of arrogance, rather it is a statement of faith and a vow to my heritage. There have been many areas of my life that change has occurred. Many of those changes have came with Spiritual growth. Those changes have rooted me in my faith in the Lord Jesus. This is not the changes that I mean. I hope that many things that are, in my life, that by the grace of God I will not change.

I refuse to change my stand on the Scriptures. I believe that the most pure Word of God is found in the King James Version. This was not given to me by a preacher or an higher education institution. This truth was settled, in my heart, by the Holy Spirit. I am not in any way saying you have to share this view, nor wanting to start a fight. I am saying I refuse to Ccompromise my stand that God has placed, in my heart, concerning His Word.

I refuse to change my stand on Biblical Seperation. I hink Seperation means that I live my life conforming myself daily into the image of God. That means whatever is not like Him is unholy. Whether it is dress, music, appetites or affections. Whatever would draw me away from my standing, in the purpose, of my personal holiness. This is what my responsibilty is. To live seperate from those that laim not His name to show forth a difference. To live an unBiblical lifestyle is to live as there is no difference between life and death, light and darkness, and faith and unbelief. To say there is no difference is to dishonor Christ.

I refuse to change my stand on Salvation. I believe that it is only a working of God, in the heart of man. It is initiated and completed by God, of His own choosing. This mean that we cannot cause God to come to us or love us or deserve this gift of grace. This is how we got in and He keeps us in, through His power and purpose that He has for us. This purpose is created in His Will and then placed in Our Wills. Never the other way around. This is the foundation of our life in Christ Jesus.

My prayer in this is not just for 2012, rather it is for the rest of my days, Hope you received help and maybe you have found things you want to refuse to lose, in your lives, no matter the cost. God bless you.
