Fact of the day: Human beings are fallible. We mess up, we make mistakes, we have blind spots. God, of course, doesn't. Because of this, God will naturally not always agree with us. In fact, very often, He will disagree with us. The mistakes we make, God will not make. Our blind spots are not hidden to Him. He knows the mysteries we can only guess at.
But of course, we very often don't give Him His due credit. When we find something we don't like, we resist it. "That's not the God I believe in." "My God would never say that." And of course, "leave me to my truth." But friends, if your "god" always agrees with you, your god is you. No other god could inherit your errors so perfectly. You are your own choir to preach to, you are your own prophet, you are the god you serve.
And isn't that the problem? Isn't this how humanity fell in the first place? The fall started with one simple question: "Did God really say?" And from that, "you shall be as God." And we've been falling for the same trick for 6,000 years. Over and over again, "did God really say? You shall be as God." And that's how we get "that's not the God I believe in."
Of course, there is an appropriate time to say that phrase. It is when the idea being presented is contrary to the God revealed in His Holy word. But all too often, it is against that word. The Bible is filled with unpopular doctrines, and just as God warned us through Paul, people do not put up with it. They surround themselves with teachers who tell them what their itching ears want to hear. This leads only to doom. The only way we can be forgiven for this is to stop pretending we are God and start confessing Jesus as Lord. Only through faith in His death and resurrection can our blasphemies be forgiven.
