| Two Masters |
| “No servant can serve two masters”(Luke 16:13). |
| These words, spoken by the Lord Jesus to His disciples, challenge us to make a decision. If we profess to be truly saved, we cannot follow the Lord on the one hand and associate with the world on the other. Satan is the god and prince of this world and opposed to everything that is of Christ. The world rejected Christ, and still rejects Him today. Are we going to associate and have a part in that which has no love for our Savior? Such double-mindedness does not please the Lord. Later on, the Lord said to the disciples, “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am” (John 13:13). However, it is easy to say things, quite another to mean it and to act on it. We can call Him our Lord, but the question is, is there reality in our hearts and a true desire to give Him that place? |
| Towards the end of his life, Joshua called the people of God together and challenged them, “Choose you this day whom ye will serve.” He then added, “but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord” (Joshua 24:15). Many, young and old, over the centuries have followed Joshua’s example, and, to be sure, have never regretted it. |
