Matthew 7:29
King James Version
29 For he taught them
as one having authority,
and not as the scribes.
Have you found a "master"?
Someone you can truly believe in?
Someone whose word was "gold"?
Or perhaps, you feel you are one, such master?
Someone others need to believe in.
Someone who's got great authority.
And has deep conviction.
Well, I searched long and hard, for such an authority.
Someone I could truly believe in.
With all my heart and soul.
It almost took me forever.
Somehow, I could never follow blindly.
Thus, I took to the independent path.
I finally found the ULTIMATE leader.
And surely, He was given to me.
One who speaks with authority.
One who is authentic.
GOD saved the BEST for LAST.
He made me born again, so late in my life.
And then His SPIRIT led me to His Son, JESUS.
That's when the search stopped.
On 17 November 2020, my search was officially over.
I had found my "MASTER".
Declared through His own words:
Matthew 23:8-10
King James Version
8 But be not ye called Rabbi:
for one is your Master, even Christ;
and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth:
for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
10 Neither be ye called masters:
for one is your Master, even Christ.
This is an article I started nearly a year ago.
And it's only now I get back into it, to finalize it.
SPIRIT made me watch a Mark Hitchcock sermon.
This statement reminded me of my "search":
"The first duty of every soul,
is to find not its freedom,
but its master."
-- P.T. Forsyth, Scottish theologian
The Final Score | Marking the End Times
So that's what I had been searching for all along, all that time:
A "MASTER"
One I can truly believe in.
One who had REAL authority.
One I can trust my life with.
One whose WORD was GOLD.
All the while, I thought I was searching for ULTIMATE "truth".
But who could give ultimate truth, but the "MASTER"?
The world presents many "masters".
JESUS warned us about them:
Matthew 24:24
King James Version
24 For there shall arise false Christs,
and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders;
insomuch that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect.
Matthew 7:15
King James Version
15 Beware of false prophets,
which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Apostle John warned us about them:
1 John 2:18
King James Version
18 Little children, it is the last time:
and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come,
even now are there many antichrists;
whereby we know that it is the last time.
Apostle Paul warned us, too:
Colossians 2:8
King James Version
8 Beware lest any man spoil you
through philosophy and vain deceit,
after the tradition of men,
after the rudiments of the world,
and not after Christ.
I've ALWAYS known there was a "MASTER".
That's why I kept searching -- no matter how long it took.
And I'm glad I didn't listen to the world.
Most of all, I'm glad GOD made me born again in 2019.
Without which, I'd not have known about the TRUE magnificence of JESUS.
Thanks to SPIRIT, I now do.
Catholicism gave me a taste.
Being born again sealed the deal.
