I Want To Change Without Really Changing!?

The other day I told my Dad that I want to lose 15-20lbs, then I stopped and said that I wanted to lose the weight but not bad enough to change the way that I eat.  Ernie, I hear what you are typing down brother.

Think about this for a minute, doctors and medicine take care of my blood pressure and high cholesterol by simply taking some pill.  In other words the doctor I go to doesn't really help me get better, just from getting  worse quickly?  I am not motivated to change my diet and don't have to because of modern science.  The downside of taking the medicine is that my current eating behavior just gets stronger and change becomes even more difficult.

They say that knowing you have a problem is half the battle - THAT IS A LIE!!!  Think of how many people that you know smoke, and everybody knows how bad it is.  That knowledge does not result in change, at least for the bulk of people.

Everybody has the same disease and all should know it!  Yes, some deny it on the outside, however if they have an ounce (about as much as me) of intelligence then they know it.  This disease is terminal for all who have it,  It is genetic and passed on through blood.  It is more deadly than Aids!?  The disease I am speaking about is SIN.  There is only ONE cure for sin - it is a blood transfusion from some one who is sinless?  The Sinless One's Blood must cleanse away all the sin in every one who is willing to be Washed in the Blood.  The Blood must be able to cleanse all past sin, present sin and even future sin?

Well, there is hope!  God from Heaven, sent is only Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin and made a man (the God-Man), whom would suffer unjustly for all of our sins (thats me and you and you and you) and be made a sacrifice for us all and be put to death on a cross, only to rise again in three days.  Are you at that "cross" today?


John 3:16-18 NLT
"For God loved the world so much that He gave His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.
God sent His Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through Him.
"There is no judgment against anyone who believes in Him. But anyone who does not believe in Him has already been judged for not believing in God's one and only Son.
