A lonely voice

Jeremiah 4

I have NEVER heard a TV program encourage me to “circumcise” my heart. In fact, quite the opposite. Every program is encouraging same-sex relationships, materialism, popularity, alcohol abuse etc. It seems only the Bible or Christian preachers talk about controlling the lusts and urges of our sinful hearts.

The Bible is a lonely and often unpopular voice encouraging mankind to turn away from pleasing yourself and please God instead. After all, isn’t that really what it’s about.

Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: [Col. 3:5]
