As many of my friends know, I am not that great of a computer wiz. I am certainly what most would call an "end user". If it is working, I am good. If not, call my brother, even son....not me. But it does not take rocket science to figure this one out.
In an attempt to do some upgrades (yes...on my own. don't tell my wife) I started downloading some software that I thought would be useful. That is when I got this wonderful pop-up icon that stated..."warning...this program is not compatable with your operating system. The continuation of this download could cause problems with your computer." Now, I heeded that advise, because it made sense. But how many of you have had this happen and still downloaded the software, later to regret it?
In our spiritual lives, we try to do the same. You see the Bible states that if we are in Christ (those who accept the message of the bible and live according to it's teachings, believing on Jesus) you are a new creature. Ergo, we have a new operating system! So, what happens when you try to use the old operating system? One word....CRASH. Don't act so surprised when you are having a "slow down" or a malfunction when you have incompatable software running. You cannot act or live like the world or your old self and get away with it. We must do a system check and clean out our hard drive. Optimize your faith by filtering everything through the Word of God. Do not download stuff that opens your i.p. adress to all kinds of viruses and incompatabilities. If you are operating with the old system (a life of sin and seperation from God) UPGRADE NOW! you were not designed to operate like you do. Do not try to patch things up. God wants to give you a whole new system. Think on these things. Jory
