Refusing to Live for God: DEAD MAN WALKING



Dead: Having lost life; no longer alive. Lacking feeling or sensitivity; numb or unresponsive. Asleep, bloodless, or spiritless. If you took a fish out of water it would eventually die. If you uprooted a tree from the soil it would eventually die. If we as humans went without oxygen for a certain amount of time then we would eventually die. The water is the atmosphere in which fish can live. The soil is the substance by which the tree can grow, and oxgen is the element through which we as humans are able to breathe and remain living. Oxygen helps us as humans to live physically, but what helps us as humans to live spiritually? A person can be alive physically but dead spiritually. A computer can have both hardware(body) and software(soul), but still lack an online(spiritual) connection.

Are you connected to the true source of life? or are you just operating with hardware and software but lacking the true connection. Just as roadrunner is the name of the modem which Time Warner uses for its online connection; Jesus is the name of modem which God uses in order for us to have a connection with him. Jesus stated " no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." Without the right modem you do not have online access and without Christ Jesus we do not have access to the Father. Have you made a decision with your lifestyle not to live for God and therefore become a DEAD MAN WALKING.
