Thanks to Larry Shatzer, I have grown very, very fond of Snoopy. In this picture, Snoopy passively ignores something he just doesn't want to hear. He chills out, lays down and turns out what he simply does NOT want to hear! How many people have we known who are like that? Friends, family, co-workers and maybe even ourselves on occasion?
In all fairness, perhaps there is a good reason; you know, something like an incessant nag, or someone telling you things you have heard over and over and over.
Question: But, what if its about some spiritual aspect of your life that needs changing? Something that would keep you from heaven?
Then, what do you do?
Paul says to his young disciple Timothy...
2 Timothy, Chapter 4 (WEB)
1 I command you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom: 2 preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort with all patience and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts, 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn away to fables. (emp. added vss. 3 &4) 5 But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.
What you do is up to you. You decide your fate, no one else! My advice is to listen to what The Bible has to say and nothing else. Don't be fooled by people whose primary spiritual message is one of personal opinion, and does not have a shred of Scriptural basis to it!
Your ears, your choice- choose wisely!!!
