Sacred Holdings!


2 Peter 1: 18
We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.

Do you remember a time, when the people of the church, held things sacred?
Sacred means to be separated from sin, and 100% dedicated to God.

What are the sacred things in your life?
We need to remember, that God is Holy, and He has called us to be Holy as well.

There was a time, when the church held in honor, honoring the Sabbath and worshipping God in spirit and in truth.
That’s a tenant of the faith, that doe not appear to be sacred anymore.

So it begs the question this morning….. What area of our lives used to honor God, that no longer do?
What are those things that we would never do or say, knowing full well that they are seen as offensive to God?

So much has changed in Christianity—at least for some it has.
There used to be a time, when the church was like a virgin who was keeping herself for the bridegroom.

The return of the Bridegroom could be at any time, but don’t we see things unclean and unfit come into the church from time to time?
Maybe it’s just me, but it sure appears that the church has become reckless, idle, relaxed, and casual, and we have allowed things to come in, that truly defile God.

If we’re really dedicated to God, we cannot be devoted to anyone, or anything else.
Maybe it’s time we stopped again, to hear the voice that comes from Heaven.
Maybe it’s time we go back, to serve Him, on the Holy mountain, and not serve ourselves……….
