The Pulpit or a Stage? # 327

A young boy with leukemia is fighting for his life. He is sick and vomiting from high levels of chemotherapy. As he prepares for a bone-marrow transplant, a psychiatrist comes into the roomfor an interview. Why? Part of her job is to determine if this boy is a worthy recipient. You have it. If the psychiatrist were to determine that this boy, or anyone else, was not a worthy recipient for the treatment, the hospital would have the option of passing on to someone who was worthy of the treatment.

We live in an amazing age. The world is the stage of life. And the actors have authority over life and death. Should this be the case? It depends on your worldview. If you believe we are the products of evolution, then it is the survival of the fittest. And the job of the psychiatrist is to help determine the most fit to receive treatment. It is all quite logical. On the other hand, if you believe God created human beings in His image, the scene changes.

WE are to love our neighbors as ourselves. And we are to give to our neighbor the treatment we would desire for ourselves.

The criterion for judgment changes when God is in the picture. But, you say, there is evidence for evolution. And there is no evidence for God. Listen, "What was from the beginning, what we have had, what we have seen with our eyes, what we beheld and our hands handled, concerning the Word of Life -- what we have seen and heard we proclaim to you"(1 John 1:1-3). You see, Christianity is not a game! The church is not an entertainment center! You don’t go to see a make believe play on a stage. Christianity brings a serious message for a world in need.
