IN THE NEWS...

WHO IS #1?

While we were in England, one of our greatest desires was to see the various castles around the country. At one time, these castles were where the “Lords” lived. They owned all the land around the castle. The common people would live on the land and work it for the Lord. The harvest from the crops was given to the Lord. The common people worked hard on the land, but the land, the house they lived in, the harvest, etc. belonged to the Lord. A portion of all that was made on the land was given to the Lord. Sometimes they would get angry about giving this harvest to the Lord, but it was his. Many of the Lords were good to the common people and provided them with houses and land to work. The Lord was responsible for the protection of these farmers around the castle and they were allowed a place in the castle when needed. When the hard times came, the Lords would provide more food and supplies and the castle was always the fortress into which they could enter for protection. These people were not slaves who had been bought by the Lord, but they had chosen to live and work there and serve the Lord.

1 Peter 3:15 states, “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord.” Throughout the New Testament it tells us to receive Jesus as Lord and to speak the words, “Jesus is Lord.” (Romans 10:9-10) It might be easy for us to understand that God is Lord of the universe or even Lord of the world. But what these verses are talking about is for us to choose to make Jesus the Lord of our lives. The concept of “Lord” that was used with the castles is the same concept we are talking about here. We have to come to the point where we acknowledge that all that I am, all that I have and all that I am able to do is God’s. It is not mine. That is difficult for us to do. Even as little children we would argue over our toys saying, “this is mine!” To have Jesus as Lord means that I accept that all is His and I am His. It is my choice. The question that I think we need to answer is this: “Is Jesus the Lord of our lives?” If not, who is? If Jesus is not Lord of all, then He is not Lord at all. Throughout the month of August we will be looking at this whole concept of the Lordship of Christ. We will study what it is and how we are to live that out in our lives. This is crucial to our faith journey. If we stop short of making Jesus Lord, then we will live powerless lives. But, if we will live with Jesus as Lord, He will provide for us, protect us and be the fortress to which we can run whenever we need that. It is our choice. “In your hearts set apart Christ as Lord.”
