THINGS TO HELP US GROW 2

WE MUST HAVE A VISION FOR SOULS

Proverbs 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

 When we think of having a vision we often think of our goals for the future.  That is something that we surely should do but there are some other things we need to have a vision of besides our goals.

 We need to have a vision of the awfulness of sin.  Sin has become so common place that we have grown to accept many things that would never have been tolerated even several decades ago.

 Sin is destructive.  It damages the one who sins as well as those who are sinned against.  God did not call sin bad because it was sin.  He called it sin because it was bad and harmful to us.

 No matter how customs, cultures, and times change, sin is still sin and no matter how acceptable it becomes to society we must still have a vision of its awfulness and destructiveness.

 Thankfully those of us who know Jesus as our Lord and Savior have a vision of the remedy for sin.  There is no other remedy than the one found in Jesus.
