Matthew 16

One moment Peter was making a great statement of faith, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God," (Mt 16:16) and the next he was attempting to direct Jesus away from the cross, "This shall never happen to you!" (Mat 16:22). We tend to model the same thing. Dinesh D'Souza, author of, "What's So Great About Christianity" writes about this duplicity,
"There is religious truth. reserved for Sundays and the days of worship, and there is secular truth, which applies the rest of the time. This divided lifestyle is opposed to what the Bible teaches."
We need to be followers of Jesus 24-7! SWC
