We've been evolving, well, since the beginning of time and I think it would behoove us to not stand and say - "I have all truth".
None of us have everything or know everything. As time moves on, the Lord opens our eyes and gives us greater and deeper understanding - if we allow it.
To be fearful of change is normal. I understand that. Once you open the gate, you are very hard pressed to close it again. To want to throw out things without time, thought and prayer is not good either.
Sometimes we can pray and not want to change, therefore, it's harder to hear the voice of God for our lives. I've been in prayer and cut the voice of God off because I did not like the way it was going. I think we could, if we were honest, agree that we have done that. It still went His way, but it was just a little more painful not to be on the same page, in the beginning. LOL! |
I remember growing up believing that we had "THE Truth". It seems like that was drilled into my brain, but maybe that was just my intepretation of it. Anyway, years later, I had to repent for thinking that. The whole idea is so arrogant - that we have the truth - that means there is nothing else to learn. I don't ever want to get to that point in my mind again. And I don't blame anyone or any organization for that; it was my own foolishness.
