THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING "HOLY" GOD
Scripture: HEBREWS 12:14, I CORINTHIANS 1:2, I JOHN 1:5, I JOHN 5:7, ISAIAH 5:20-21, ISAIAH 5:24-30
THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING `HOLY' GOD
A WORD IS INCREASINGLY BEING DROPPED FROM USE IN OUR SECULAR
SOCIETY. IT IS SAD BECAUSE IT IS AN INFINITELY GOOD WORD THAT
STANDS FOR WHAT IS MOST EXCELLENT IN TRUTH AND VALUE.
BUT REMEMBER, A "SECULAR" SOCIETY SAYS THAT GOD IS IRRELIVANT
AND UNNECESSARY; THAT MANKIND CAN GET LONG QUITE ALRIGHT WITHOUT
GOD OR THIS WORD.
THE ABSENCE OF THIS WORD AND ALL THAT IT STANDS FOR IS
IMMEDIATELY NOTICABLE AS YOU READ THE NEWS DAILY. SEPARATE MAN
FROM HIS CREATOR AND WHAT GOD SAYS IS "HOLY", AND WATCH ALL THAT
WAS ONCE CALLED TRUTH BE QUESTIONED.
AS ISAIAH DESCRIBED THE SOCIETY OF HIS DAY THAT HAD TURNED THEIR
BACKS ON GOD AND EVEN MOCKED HIM...
ISA 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put
darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for
sweet and sweet for bitter.
ISA 5:21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever
in their own sight.

"MUST BOYS ALWAYS BE BOYS"
"IT WAS A GLEN RIDGE (NJ) DEFENSE ATTORNEY, MICHAEL QUERNEY,
WHO SAID IN HIS OPENING STATEMENT LAST OCTOBER (DEFENDING HIGH
SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYERS WHO RAPED A RETARDED FEMALE CLASSMATE),
"BOYS WILL BE BOYS. PRANKSTERS. FOOL-A-ROUNDS. DO CRAZY THINGS.
EXPERIMENT WITH LIFE WITH LIFE AND DISREGARD THEIR PARENTS. BOYS
WILL BE BOYS."
HAVE THE BOYS OR THEIR ATTORNEY EVER HEARD OF THE WORD "HOLY"
AND ANYTHING THAT IT IMPLIES? SADLY, BASIC HUMAN VALUES BECOME
MEANINGLESS WITH A REFERENCE TO WHAT IS "HOLY!"
HEB 12:14 Make every effort to live in peace ...
