Being Narrow-Minded.... I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom. 2 Timothy 4:1 Recommended Reading 2 Timothy 4:6-8 Some say biblical Christianity is too narrow. If it is true (and it is) then it is indeed narrow compared with modern sensibilities. It helps to remind ourselves of what the Bible teaches about Jesus Christ, to make sure we remain committed to a biblical faith. For instance, the Bible says that Jesus Christ will sit as judge of all humanity one day in the future (Romans 2:16; 2 Timothy 4:1). Do you believe this? Jesus Himself said that He is the way, the truth, and the life -- that no one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6). Do you believe this? The Bible says that one day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2:10). Do you believe this? Jesus said that everyone who does not believe in Him stands condemned already (John 3:18). Do you believe this? But the Bible also says there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1). Do you believe this? The law of gravity is narrow, but it is also true. The best response to truth is to believe and rejoice in its blessing. All my theology is reduced to this narrow compass -- Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. - Archibald Alexander
