COT:
YHC is very much an easy going guy. I don’t like to get involved in controversy. Some would probably state that this is a good trait to have, and I generally agree. However, one can take it too far. There are a couple of passages I want to share to illustrate.
‭Obadiah 1:10-11 NASB1995‬
[10] “Because of violence to your brother Jacob, You will be covered with shame, And you will be cut off forever. [11] On the day that you stood aloof, On the day that strangers carried off his wealth, And foreigners entered his gate And cast lots for Jerusalem— You too were as one of them.”
The Edomites, descendants of Esau the brother of Jacob, didn’t come to their brother’s aid, the nation of Israel. This is among the reasons why Edom is being judged in this book.
‭Revelation 3:15-16 NASB1995‬
[15] ‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot. [16] So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of My mouth.”
The church at Laodicea was not passionate about serving the Lord. They were taking the easy path, and Christ condemns this lack of action.
It is appropriate to be accommodating and to defer to others in many cases. But, we have an obligation to stand firm in the faith. We cannot let Satan tempt us into being indifferent in matters of faith and our families’ wellbeing.

COT:

Yesterday was the start of advent.
Advent is a time to prepare for Christmas but also a time to reflect on the coming of Christ to earth. We’re actually between 2 advents, the first coming and the second coming.
Start the advent season by preparing not only for his first coming but his second coming.

Rom 13:14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provisions for the flesh, to gratify it’s desires.

Eph 6:11 Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil.

COT:
Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of – throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

COT: Today we talked about the struggle for justification. This one is especially difficult for me so I would like to bring some light on this subject today. In my daily life I always have need to do things right or make progress in order to prove to myself that I’m on the right path and as a result I can get caught in a cycle that leads to my downfall because of the eventual failures and mistakes that I’m going to make. It’s a terrible way to live and I do it more than I would like to admit. The main issue here isn’t my mistakes however, it’s relying on myself when I should be relying on God in my daily life. Romans 3:23 says “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and are justified by his grace as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus” We need to shift our perspective and our hearts in our day to day lives because we have been redeemed by the God of creation. That’s huge. And that’s where we should find our justification. We can lose sight of this in the daily hustle but I encourage you to find time to pray and focus on his direction because it will hopefully keep you from looking for justification from you own works and keep your desires focused on the bigger picture.
