Are You Balanced

February 18, 2009 By: Ryan Category: Culture, Leadership, Life, Ministry Blogs

In our churches, we come across many different types of people. 

Morally-Imbalanced

Some who are passionate about God and the Bible but don’t know how to apply it to everyday life.  I refer to these as morally-imbalanced individuals.  They know what God says but don’t have any problems living LIKE the world.

Biblically-Imbalanced

Others have THIER opinions but can’t back them up with Scripture.  They may use Scripture but it is usually pulled out of context to fit their needs morally.  They have a right and wrong but it is usually their own and not substantiated by God.

Biblically-Balanced

The biblically-balanced individuals are rare in the church.  These people, not only know what God says, but they put it into practices in their daily lives.  Everything they do is first brought before God and His Word and then second, applied to their everyday situation.

Be careful to not assume that once you become a biblically-balanced individual that Satan sill try to pull you back into one of the imbalanced situations.  Stay true to what God says and know how to apply it in everyday life.
