Reverse Your Thinking

As for you, you were dead in your transgressions 
and sins, in which you used to live when you 
followed the ways of the world. Ephesians 2:1

Reverse your thinking
(Read down the list and see what happens.)

I will live my life according to these beliefs:

God does not exist

Its just foolish

That there is an all knowing God with a cosmic plan

That an all powerful God brings purpose to the pain 
     and suffering in the world

Is a comforting thought however

It 

Is only wishful thinking

People can do as they please without eternal consequences

The idea that

I am deserving hell

Because of sin

Is a lie meant to make me a slave to those in power

The more you have the happier you will be

Our existence has no grand meaning or purpose

In a world with no God
There is freedom to be who I want to be

But with God

Life is an endless cycle of guilt and shame

Without God

Everything is fine

It is ridiculous to think

I am lost and in need of saving

And that's how I thought...before Christ opened my
 eyes...changed my heart...and reversed my Thinking

I am lost and need of saving

It is ridiculous to think

Everything is fine

Without God

Life is an endless cycle of guilt and shame

But with God

There is freedom to be who I want to be

In a world with no God

Our existence has no grand meaning or purpose

The more you have, the happier you will be

Is a lie meant to make me a slave to those in power

Because of sin

I am deserving of hell

The idea that 

People can do as they please without eternal 
consequences

Is only wishful thinking

It

is a comforting thought however

That an all powerful God brings purpose to the pain  
and suffering in the world

That there is an all knowing God with a cosmic plan

Its foolish to think

God does not exist

I will live my life according to these beliefs:

Because of His great love for us, God who is rich in
mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were
dead in transgressions. Ephesians 2:4
(Taken from The Final Countdown by Billy Crone)

Reader, the first list is what modern man believes, but
the scripture tells us that God loves us with a great
love, and by the cross He delivered us even when we
were dead in our sins and helpless to change.
Hallelujah!

Don't wait, but come to Him and let Him transform
you into a new creation.
