What will you do in the end?

“The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” - Jeremiah 5v31

Judah was in a mess. Their prophets prophesied falsely and their priests ruled by their own authority. This in itself was bad enough, but the worse thing was that the people loved it the way it was! All of the religion of the day was done in a way that suited the people!

There is a movement afoot today where churches set up their churches at the whim of the community, where church is designed to meet the needs of the people instead of doing what God wants done. Instead of being centred of Christ, it becomes focused on man. When we look at this passage it is obvious that this concept is nothing new.

This kind of worship may build great numbers in churches, but it is often at the price of standing for God and His truth. The question still remains – “What will you do in the end?” How will men face God at the Bema seat with the knowledge that they have done things their own way instead of God’s way?”

Are you living for God today, or for the moment? If you are living for the moment, what will you do in the end?
