Soulful Sunday

From Beth Moore's, Breaking Free Day by Day (A year of Walking in Liberty)

The time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine.
2 Timothy 4:3

A rebellious child prefers pleasant illustration over truth. We crave messages that make us feel good. When we are living in rebellion, the last thing we want is to confront the Holy One of Israel.

So the apostle Paul was right in his warning to young Timothy. If we strongly prefer certain teachers and preachers over others, we are wise to ask why. If our basis is anything other than balanced biblical teaching, we could be in rebellion while occupying our pews every Sunday. Let's make sure we are not looking for people to scratch out itching ears and hide us from the truth.
