Many people say they love the Lord, but they continue to allow the world to separate them from the Lord.  I sometimes wonder if people do not really realize what  things separate you from the Lord. Let’s try jobs, prestige, pride, love of money, sports and many others as examples.

Many people continue to tax the church with wanting help and assistance in many areas.  They want position or status in the church, but when it’s time to come together as a body they forsake the body and the Lord.  My flesh sometimes wants to just say, I do not understand how a person can put the world before God.  But guess what?  It’s all in God’s hands.  Maybe it’s time to study Romans 8:35.

Romans 8:35 says, Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
