Learning to be a Man

Recently, i have discovered that as a man who confesses Jesus Christ as savior, I don't share many of my savior's qualities. Not that i didn't realize this before but day by day, i see how perfect and majestic he is and how very much i need to grow. In our current culture, we think we are wise because we have fancy degrees and yet we our Biblically illiterate. God does not call us to him and his son, and then stop there. If that was all there was, we would not live in the kind of western world we have now. During the founding of the United States we as a nation taught the bible as the main textbook in schools and it was simply natural to learn that way. We had a literacy rate which was astronomically incredible, because people wanted to know the depths of the bible themselves and not have it be interpreted to them; as it commonly was through the Church of England or that of Catholicism. People became wise through the teachings of the bible and they attributed everything they did through the God's Word. This was how the greatest country the world has ever knew, was created and it is only through the Christian God which can bring it back from the precipice of destruction--of which we currently our heading towards. Our founders applied the Bible to a saving knowledge of our savior, understanding political issues as well as one of our most important arenas of our life; our love life. These were real men and women, who served God in every area of life. They were not perfect and neither are we (though we have allowed our culture to become fairly sinful). Therefore the Bible isn't simply a tool for your salvation but something which should be in every area of your life and thought of in everyday issues.

Through careful study of God's Word, help from books, friends and anything which i can learn from, i want to be a Man that resembles my one true love... Jesus.
