The Education Ticket (3 of 6)
Series: Your Ticket to Life
Frank Damazio
Introduction: God is the great educator and in a very real sense, salvation and spiritual growth is a matter of spiritual education. A life built on the true knowledge of God and God's word is a life built right and one that will stand through the storms. The life built on the world's false values and a knowledge that is rooted only in man's knowledge is life at risk. Reliable knowledge must start with a sure foundation. That foundation is God's knowledge, God's word, and God's values. We must add diligently, supply fully the education ticket, a spiritual bachelor's degree, master's degree, doctorate and Ph.D. The Christian community has a divided mind about its textbook! With 1,000 books published in the USA every week, the pressure to stay informed weighs heavily. But there is a difference between information and the God kind of knowledge that shapes your life. In this message, we will examine the education ticket that God desires us to have in order to go through the right doors of life and build a life that God honors and says, "Well done, faithful servant."
