Acts 17:26-31 NLT
From One Man He created all the nations throughout the whole earth. He decided beforehand when they should rise and fall, and He determined their boundaries. [27] "His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward Him and find Him - though He is not far from any one of us. [28] For in Him we live and move and exist. As some of your own poets have said, 'We are His offspring.' [29] And since this is true, we shouldn't think of God as an idol designed by craftsmen from gold or silver or stone. [30] "God overlooked people's ignorance about these things in earlier times, but now He commands everyone everywhere to repent of their sins and turn to Him. [31] For He has set a day for judging the world with justice by the Man He has appointed, and He proved to everyone who this is by raising Him from the dead."
Paul explained to the Athenians that this "unknown God" to whom they had erected a shrine was in fact knowable!
If you ask people if they believe in God, most say that they think there is something or someone, a greater power, but they don't know who or what it is.
This is where multiculturalism has brought us in this country.
It's so sad.
Even our king brought Muslim prayers into Windsor this week. Football pauses for Ramadan water breaks during matches - bowing down to foreign faith festivals.
Yet growing up in the early sixties there wasn't the multi-choice faiths that children are presented with today.
God was quite simply Jesus Christ. He came to save us, died on the Cross, rose again and ascended to the right hand side of the Father.
We said the Creed daily in school assembly, followed by the Lord's prayer.
All the Christian feasts were celebrated by a visit to the Church, even Ascension day was a half day's holiday.
This was this country's Christian foundation.
However;
Psalm 11:3 NLT
The foundations of law and order have collapsed. What can the righteous do?"
That's how many of us feel today - the once identifiable God has become defaced, marred and rendered unknowable by the sledgehammers of humanism and multi-choice faiths.
Believers in Christ must stand boldly to proclaim that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever and He will return to judge the peoples of the Earth.
It's time to know the unknowable God, turn to Him for forgiveness and rebirth.
Jesus still is and ever will be THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE.
You and I can know Him personally!
