Friday after Invocavit, 3/9/00Matthew 22: 29 Jesus replied, "You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God." --NIV
In the name of the One Who points out our errors, amen.
Yesterday we noted that we should look into the Scriptures for guidance in doctrine and practice. Today we see the flip side of that thought; when we don't look to Holy Scripture, we will find ourselves in error.
Hopefully all of us, when we look again to Holy Scripture and see our error, will turn back and teach and do the right thing. God will not fail to bless us when we admit our mistakes and follow His direction. Above all, He will strengthen our faith so that we will share in eternal life. Amen.
Prayer: Dear heavenly Father, forgive our errors, and give us the courage to admit our mistakes. Bless us as we learn from Your word and follow it. Help us this day to live as You want us to live, amen.
