In Acts 14 verse 16, Luke records these thoughts.
In the generations gone by, he, that's God, permitted all the nations to go their own ways.
In the generations gone by, he permitted all the nations to go their own ways.
Everyone finds a way. There's a saying, life finds a way. Your mind finds a way.
The bottom line is people find a way for themselves. It's what people do.
God made us able, but it's not actually good enough by itself.
Having revealed the later details of his plan to save man, God expects more, or maybe less, depending on how you look at it.
Ways are unique, but dependent on the God who created us.
The lie so often perpetrated successfully is that man may go his own way, independent of God,
and still prosper. This can only be believed when eternity is completely removed from view.
If people work really hard and do really well in this life, they will still come out with nothing in the next one,
unless they embrace the plan of God. Don't go your own way. Go the way God would have you to go.
And the main way, the way into eternity and bliss forever with our God, is through his son, Jesus Christ.
