Jesus Is My Expert

In today's world many people are following many things and searching for experts to solve their problems. There is but only one expert to follow and find answers to all life's problems. The expert is Jesus! The problem comes when answers to our problems may be an honest look at ourselves instead of the problem. It is sometimes painful to acknowledge the log in our own eye, when easy to see the speck in someone else's eye.

 In John 8:7, Jesus said, "He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone." Jesus was defending a woman that had been found in the act of adultery in which Moses, in the Law, commanded that such should be stoned. Jesus did not say that what the woman did was OK. Jesus was teaching to examine ourselves for sin. We hear this quote many times when it is convenient to defend sin; but there is more to the story. After the woman's accusers left, Jesus asked the woman, "Woman, where are those thine accusers? Hath no man condemned thee? She answered, No man. Jesus replied, "Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more." Then Jesus goes on to say, "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." To walk in the light we must follow Jesus. Jesus tells us all to sin no more.

Throughout all of the scriptures the theme seems to be to love God and love others, letting Jesus to take care of our needs. Making Jesus our expert is to let go of self and seek Jesus.
Now let's talk benefits when we choose to elect Jesus as our expert.  Eternal life with Jesus in Paradise! A peace and love and joy on this side of Heaven! A genuine love for others! The only drawback that I can think of is in Ecclesiastes 1:18 The grief and sorrow comes when people that you love do not get it. It is so sad to see so many just going on with life without Jesus.  This is not fiction, I challenge you to read the Holy Bible for yourself and in doing so find the treasures of life and the only expert that can be tried and tested to find absolute truth. Jesus is my expert. Love to all!
