Almost right

I don't know about you but I have been known to relish in being almost right. You know what I am talking about. I will miss a problem by only fractions of a point and think that that was pretty good; I was almost right. I will find myself just barely missing Jeopardy questions and thinking, "Well, that was almost right."

Today's word is something that I thought of this morning..."In Christian matters, being ALMOST right is still COMPLETELY wrong. Lots of folks looking for ways to get to Heaven - there's only ONE - JESUS."

If you think being almost right is appropriate, as I have thought, think about a brain surgeon. Do you want the brain surgeon to be almost right when he/she is operating on your or your loved one's brain. How about a heart surgeon. How about an accountant that is almost right about your finances but just misses a little something that costs you thousands of dollars in back taxes or, even worse, sends you to the slammer for being almost right?

All of those things are serious but not nearly as serious as being almost right about Heaven. Yes, there are a ton of different religions and isms and beliefs out there. Yes, some of them sound almost right. But, the Bible is clear that there is only one way to Heaven - JESUS CHRIST.

Don't let your pride of being almost right lead you to be completely wrong. While you're at it, check out your surgeon to see how right they have been, too.

Be Blessed,
