The Ponderings of an Everyday Guy..."Sanctification," "Justification," "Transubstantiation," and "Glorification." What do these words have in common? 1. They are all good church words. 2. They're BIG words. 3. Many folks need a dictionary for at least one of those words.
Oh...Don't get me wrong, they're not bad words at all. When I began doing this blog, one of my purposes was to make it light and easy to understand one or two biblical teachings. It's not intended to be shallow or without substance. I just want this to be something that an everyday person can relate to their lives and maybe get a few chuckles, and finally, be encouraged or challenged.
I take my cue from Jesus here. He taught by using everyday illustrations such as fishing and farming. I've learned a very long time ago if everyone cannot understand the Gospel message, it's of no use.
I guess the acronym KISS is my directive. Keep It Simple Stupid. God's message to humanity is simple, salvation is simple.
Enjoy your day!
