“But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” What a difference is the acceptable sacrifice that pleases our God compared to the sacrifice that pleases a Muslim’s god.
As I read the head lines this morning at all the road side bombs and suicide bombing I think back to Hebrews 13 and some say we (the Christians and Muslims) have the same God. I don’t think so!
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him shall not parish but have everlasting life. That is the God I serve. He did not attract me by the sword but by His great love. John 3:16
I do not work for Him because I am hoping that someday my good works will out weigh my bad works. No, I work for the Lord because “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10
I praise the Lord God Almighty (the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ) that I was born in the USA and not Saudi Arabia. I look forward to the day that I get to go to my next Home and I will not get there by a bomb strapped around my body but by the Word of the Lord saying, “Come up hither.”
As I end my prayers every night,
Come Lord Jesus!

Amen! I came to the same logical end when I decided to read the koran. They worship a proffit we worship a living God. I wished I knew a way to show them the truth.
Gabe, thank you for the comment. I enjoy writing a blog every now and then. Feel free to come back and check my blogs out.
I have a couple of mission trips coming up one going down the Amazon and then I'm going back to Kenya to dig water wells.
