Are we monkeys?

Genesis 1:7
27 So God created mankind in his own image, 
   in the image of God he created them; 
   male and female he created them.


Unless God is an ape, I think this pretty much sums it all up.

Exclusivity of Jesus

John 14:6
6Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.


The next time someone tells you there are many ways to Heaven, ask them these questions, "Who was Jesus? Was he a liar?" If they insist all roads lead to Heaven, ask them how they explain this quote.

Sharing your faith

John 15:18 - 19
18 “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. 19 If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.


The next time you are worried about the reaction you may get from sharing the Gospel, keep these words from Jesus in mind. The world may not want to hear the truth, but it is our job to spread the Good News.

True freedom is in Christ

Galatians 5:13-15:
13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.


As we go about our day, how about doing something for someone else today? Smile and wave in that person trying to get on the highway in front of you. Allow someone with a few items to go ahead of you at the store.
