WHO'S YOUR DADDY?


WHO'S YOUR DADDY?



 


Christ has kids (Mark 10:15; Luke 18:17) that attempt to bring their life into conformity with His ways and works so that they can enjoy His presence forever in His Kingdom that He will establish on this earth. At times they fall short of His teaching and His leadership that He has recorded in the Bible. That problem is easily handled through confessing that short sighted behavior or thought. Slowly they come into conformity with His ways and thinking through the help of other like-minded kids. And some of His kids have great age in following Him. Their words and works display that longevity. And eventually the kid looks and acts just like their father (1 John 3:2).

Satan has kids also (John 8:44). Some have followed his leadership for a vast period of time; since birth. Many also have fallen short of his leadership. They entrench themselves in his ways and methods to win his approval, even without acknowledging his existence so that in the end they end up in the same place where he is headed. They are easily recognized for they do the same deeds as their father (John 8:44). Those deeds are listed throughout the Bible that Jesus kids follow. Satan's kids follow the same Bible but with the usual unknown desire to mimic their leader. Lies are one of his traits as he was the father of them (John 8:44). Murders and the desire to murder is another. Although they follow his traits documented in the Bible they abide not in that book having been taught by him the book is worthless (John 8:44; 1 Cor. 6:9-10). Some are jealous, brawlers, hateful, drunks, drug addicts, are all following the lifestyle he tempts them to live (Gal. 5:21). These traits are so natural that they don't even give credit to the originator and instigator of their behavior.

The one, Satan, is easier to follow because it is fleshly in its core makeup (John 5:43). The other stems from a made alive spirit (Eph. 2:5, 8-9). Whose kid are you, who is your father. The origin of your thoughts and deeds give huge clues to who your daddy is.
