Being right, so that GOD may be glorified



     When we disagree, and I debate with you, it is not about having to be right for the sake of one’s ego, as it is not about one, not one, pride related factor, issue or dynamic—it is however, about being right so that GOD may be glorified. This is the significant and utmost reason for my actions in word and deed, for my firm stance for Biblical precepts, and my conviction for and belief in them, and thus, my life in totality.

    I seek not to argue with you first and foremost, for I seek the love of GOD to abound between us.  I seek not to argue with you, and thus do not engage in debate merely so that I may prove a point or so, again, as misconceived, because I have to be right. I want to be right in GOD’S eyes first, and then in yours so that HE may be glorified, we enlightened and encouraged, and subsequently edified by and through the HOLY Spirit of GOD dwelling within us.

     It is the concept of, “The 4 Critical E’s:  Engage, so that we may Encourage and Enlighten, so that the Holy Spirit may Edify.” This is not merely a pontificating statement; it is an axiom, or postulate by which I choose to live by forever more. And with this being the  adage by which I ascribe, I must be right in GOD’S eyes, so that I may share GODLY wisdom , for if I share misleading, deceitful untruths , or refutable lies, I and others shall suffer, and if left unchecked we shall be judged unworthy of heaven and burn in hellfire for the rest of eternity.

     That, is to costly a consequence to pay to allow my motive to be of an ulterior and or self-gratifying nature—thus,  again I stress that my reason for desiring to be right, is so that GOD may be glorified and we blessed for our faithful obedience to HIM.
