That's Outta Style
I never was one that worried much
about style - although, some things need to go out of style, such as '70's
suits and baggy pants that are in the process of falling off. Some words come
into style and out of style, but "cool" never seems to go out of
style. Ain't that cool?
I have noticed that some people
ride the wave of "Christian" fads.
They like the particular Bible translation that is touted at the
moment. They follow the popular media
preachers. They buy the fashionable Christian accessories. They listen to the
trendy music. They stay up on the
hottest fashions. There are some people that
are attracted to the newest religions, saying that Jesus has gone out of style.
Human nature wants new thrills, new stuff, new ways of thinking, new, new,
new.
For some, Christianity has become
out of style and no longer politically correct. Some want to hear no mention of
God anywhere, especially the name of Jesus.
It is becoming increasingly unpopular to be unashamedly Christian. Fads
come and go. False religions are always
vying for people's attention. Most things go outta style at some point.
I am satisfied with the God that
is not new, yet has not gone outta style! He is still here. He is still helping
people. He is still saving people through the blood of Jesus Christ. He is the
same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He AM. He is the eternal present tense.
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou
say unto the children of Israel
"Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before
Abraham was, I am." John 8:58
