I have this little analogy in my head, its been in there for a while, so I thought I might share it with the entire world on the internet.
I think that the Wizard of Oz actually relates a lot to the Christian, sounds random, I know, but bear with me:
- We need a new heart: I think that all sins comes down to the heart, if someone has a proud heart all their sin will be proud. If someone has a lustful, greedy heart, all their sin will be done in lust and with greed. I think for someone to cut sin out of their lives, they must change their hearts first!
- We need a new brain: A perspective that seeks to constantly bring glory to God and work things out to bring us into a closer relationship with Him, and is basically on he same wave-length.
- We need courage: Courage to boldly shout the gospel to everyone, and to spread the word 'as we go.'
- We need to go home: We are not citizens of this Earth, we only inhabit it for 80 years or so, and then we head home, home to our eternal Father, ruling over His eternal estate.
I'm really sorry if this makes little sense; I've had far too little sleep, and far too much to do!
