"I like your Christ. I do not
like your Christians. Your
Christians are so unlike your
Christ." Mahatma Gandhi's
quote reminds us that very
often religion and religious
people prove to be one of
the greatest hindrances to
people coming to a "saving
knowledge" of Jesus.
I want to turn again this
week to Jesus' comments to
the woman at Jacob's well
in John 4:22. He said, "...ye
worship ye know not what".
This is not unlike so many
people today. They belong
to one denomination or
another, because their family
for generations has belonged
to it. Likewise, they believe
what they are told about how
to come to Christ and how
to reach heaven, without
considering whether or not
what they are being taught is
Biblical. They simply accept
it.
But Scripture is not
always that upon which
a teaching is based. This
sad truth is summed up by
Jesus in Matthew 15:6 and
9 -"...ye [have] made the
commandment of God of
none effect byyour tradition",
and "...in vain they worship
me, teaching for doctrines
the commandments of men."
People are led to believe they
are worshiping God and that
they are good Christians,
when in reality they are still
far, far from God.
Jesus sternly rebuked the
hypocritical Pharisees in
Matthew 23:15, saying, "...
ye compass sea and land
to make one proselyte, and
when he is made, ye make
him twofold more the child
of hell than yourselves."
They were teaching
the traditions of men as
though it was God's Word,
while relegating the Truth
of the Word to irrelevancy.
Whether then or now when
man's ideas and philosophies
replace Scripture we may
win a convert to our church,
but we are depriving them
of what they really seek and
need - new life in Christ.

much you loved him, it is
like losing a child." She is so
right.We miss our Sisco every
single day. As memories
saunter in, I try to find peace
in believing he is playing ball
in heaven with Papa able to
run, free from pain. Just the
other morning when Willow
and I went for a long walk, I
swear I could feel him brush
against my leg and look up
at me with those loving eyes.
Maybe heaven really is closer
than we think.
Sometimes along the way
we are blessed to find the
kind of unconditional love
that saves us. I am grateful
for the years we had with our
Sisco boy and I can only hope
he felt the same about us.
Henry Wheeler Shaw once
wrote, '?k dog is the only
thing on earth that loves you
more than he loves himself."
We learned so much from
our Sisco, he saved us simply

because he loved us. For 16
years he helped awaken our
souls. We will love you always
and forever Sisco Bubs; may
you rest in as much peace
as you embodied here on
earth.
