Do you really know how important a foundation in structures are? Before I was born again I had a friend who was a carpenter/builder. Their main job was to prepare the land for construction. Careful not to dig down pass where they were going to dig the foundation. They would follow the plans laying out the strings as to where to dig the foundation. Once that was laid out then it was time to dig. It was so cool they dug with the right kind of shoval and made the neatest rows where the concrete would be poured. Afterwards they would call for the concrete truck. It couldn’t be to cold to pour and everyone had to be in place. They knew by the square footage of the foundation and the depth of the foundation how much concrete was to be pours and how much to order. While the concrete was soft medal bars had to go into the foundation. This made the foundation strong. This foundation determined everything that happened from here on out. If the walls would be off centered. If the carpet would have to be cut wrong to compensate for the mess up in the foundation. If the bricks would be laid straight; and how long this structure would last before things began to happen to it. This person when it came to foundations was a perfectionist. They check and rechecked to make sure it was correct.
Little did I know this would be an earthly lesson on heavenly understanding. How important your foundation is with God’s Word?
If you don’t understand the state that man started off in or you don’t believe today that it is important your entire foundation will be off. You will believe that you are free moral agent. However, that isn’t going to be enough to separate us because we will learn the truth when we stand before God. If you want to bury that fact in your heart instead of opening it up to learn different I can’t change that. I have made every effort to read scripture to understand why people believe they are free in darkness. I understand why people believe they are free and I wish I could make them understand they are not.
I have come to understand that only God can show a man his need for him.
