Place your faith on Jesus!!!

Event: The Riot in Ephesus

S – Scripture
Acts 19 v. 35, And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of Ephesians is the temple keeper of the great Artemis, and of the sacred stone that fell from the sky?"
 

O - Observation
Faith in nothing. The sacred stone from the sky. Reminds me of those old Planet of the Apes movies where they were worshiping the sacred Atomic bomb. Jesus said it quite well as he hung from the cross. Luke 23 v 34, "And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."" Ignorance is bliss - NOT!!! Ignorance can be deadly. Faith in things not from above, not from God the Father, not from Jesus Christ, not from the Holy Spirit is NOTHING. Matthew 24 v. 35, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.” Now that is faith in something!!!
 
A - Application
What am I basing my life, my faith on?
 
P - Prayer
Jesus, You are the words of eternal life.  Love Will.
