Are you nobler than those who are quite satisfied with their comfortable beliefs? Read the below before you answer.
Acts 17:
11 Now, these Jews were nobler than those in Thessaloni′ca, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
When we are challenged by credible sources that we respect regarding the teachings of Holy Scripture, are we noble and do we give honest prayer, thought, and research to their challenges? Or, like anyone else who prefers the comfort of their own presuppositions, the fear of honest assessment, and the need to avoid the unknown, do we brush them off? (or like the Jews in Thessalonica, go on the attack?).
Does the "truth set you free" or are you the warden of your own captivity? The search is for Christ NO MATTER THE COSTS.
"My word is truth, and the truth will set you free" - Jesus (John 8)
Is it the "salvation" that Jesus offers that we truly want?
