Two filters that cut through all the noise.
I keep coming back to two filters that simplify almost everything. Talked through them in the video — here are the scriptures I was referencing. 1. You will know them by their fruits. "By their fruit you will recognize them. Every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit." — Matthew 7:16-17 "Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds." — James 2:18 Q 2. The Two Ways — life and death. "There are two ways, one of life and one of death, and there is a great difference between the two ways." — Didache 1:1 "I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse — therefore choose life." — Deuteronomy 30:19 "Small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." — Matthew 7:14 That's it. Simple, like the original message was. Judge the tree by its fruit. Choose the path of life. Two questions that cut through the noise we all experience. Do you have a filter like this? Something that rings in your head when you're not sure what the right move is? I'd love to borrow it if so.
