THERE IS A WAY THAT SEEMS RIGHT TO A MAN BUT ITS END IS THE WAY OF DEATH ........................ PROVERBS 14:12.

THE NARROW ROAD.

Do you see that God tells us through King Solomon that men and women can walk all their life on a given road but at the end is death.

This would be a devastating find for any person to encounter. Many would say, well who is to be the guide?.. who are we to trust, confide in and place our all upon .. is there anyone in this life that we may rely upon totally?.. the answer is yes!

Countless people are moved to place their trust in banks, building societies and religious organisations who they say have been tried by the tests of time itself. Time is a good test however there is another test that surpasses that and it is .."the doctrine of Lord Jesus the Christ.'

Countless people feel great comfort in huddling together in their religious strongholds of men's ways and seemingly right doctrines, they swear by them, they spend all their earthly life and time convincing people of them and where did King Solomon say the ways of human beings lead?.. death!

King Solomon, is talking about the mind here the thinking part of the human being. Many people experience that certain things the holy bible says are not right until Father reveals it to them that is. God shows us all that He is always right and that He is the only one that ever wrote a book that had not one mistake.. (He wrote the holy bible by the hand of man).

Hence our minds say one thing and His word another .. at times, at least until we by His grace can see otherwise .... Matthew 16:17.

The mind tells people that God/Yah is a cuddly toy, a fat cat and friends type God, the humphry bear type God, this is consistent with Israel of old, read the old testament and you will see. Israel said time and time again in their arrogance and pride .. God will not do anything to us, we are His people and He must bless us!.. Jeremiah 8:7-9 * Romans 11:20,21, Ezekiel 9:1-11.

I am sure that the sons of the high priest Aaron, Nadab and Abihu thought the very same thing. I am without doubt that these two young men were thinking .. we are young priests, sons of Aaron the high priest, our uncle is Moses, the one time prince of Egypt. Their way seemed alright but it led to death, God does not show partiality toward any creature, saved or unsaved. His word comes first at all times.. 2 Timothy 2:11-13, 1 Peter 2:24,25.

Seems means apparent but not in reality, His word is reality. Reality is what the world and the churches, need a good dose of today, to sort out the men from the boys. Remember dear reader, things may seem right but in order to know for sure .. see if it lines up with His Infallible Word .. amen.
