What Changes?

Acts 6:14 KJV
For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.

We people are such a confused bunch. On the one hand God warns us not to be given to change, but on the other, we are often threatened by the changes Christ would make in us. We have a propensity to change things we shouldn't but then we will defend to our doom those things the Lord would change.

  • We will fight to save the old man and his sin filled ways but we will turn the doctrines of Christ upside down if it will benefit our cause.
  • We will cling to customs that are religious and unproductive to the spirit. But we will rush to change things that have been proven in the crucible of trial.
  • We will hold fast traditions that were taught us as children of the world then we will remove those ancient landmarks the fathers of our faith laid down for us.

When Christ enters our lives He begins to destroy old ways in order to make us new Creatures.
  • Those changes Christ makes ought to be embraced
  • Those that our flesh desires ought to be avoided with ferocity
