CAMO CHRISTIANS

CAMO CHRISTIANS!

Matt 5:14-16

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

1 Tim 5:25

25 Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.

           Camouflage does not make one invisible it only helps to make one indiscernible from his surroundings. Have you ever wondered why Navy camouflage is blue? Christians today are almost indiscernible from non-Christians. You have to look closely at their T-shirts or WWJD rubber bracelets. Their deeds, attitudes, and opinions blend well with their surroundings. Jesus addressed this even in His day and suggested that Christians come out from under the basket.

           Actually our deeds cannot be hid. Good deeds brand us but so do contrary deeds. Since that is so, should we not take off the camo and put on the robes provided by our Heavenly Father? Should we not place our candle on a lamp stand so that they which enter in may see the light?

Dear Lord, you have made me your child by your grace. I am who I am because of you. Let me not hide by blending in with my surroundings. AMEN
