THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND

"Let them alone; they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." 

- Matthew 15:14

Christ spoke the above words but in today's world there are too many people who are blindly following after every wind of doctrine. 

We cannot believe everything that we see and hear otherwise we will become as unstable as water; liquid one moment, solid the next, and then like vapor.

But there are those whose roots are shallow, they do not go deeply into the earth to be sustained. When life's storms come at them they are uprooted like mighty oaks. 

Why is this?      

Because they are too rigid they do not bent in the wind and are therefore torn out. 

Look at the palm trees. Their roots often go hundreds of feet into the earth. They are anchored well. When storms come at them the trees bend in the wind, but they do not break because they are flexible. 

If we are to go through life victorious then we must take a stance against the falsehoods that people are throwing into the wind, but if we are well grounded and flexible we will not break. 

Sooner or later those who created the falsehoods will crash to the earth broken because their doctrines were not sound.
