The week’s discussion tackles about the
changes in the fundamental beliefs of the church. In this chapter, we can see
the big transformation not just in the minor doctrines of the church also in
the major doctrine also. Sad to say, it involves even the doctrine of salvation
through sacraments. And it’s not
good. I see the church here as a kind of
two faced man. He is very good in the
outside yet so corrupt in the inside. Because
she is very determined to have power in a very wrong way. The church this time is so desperate for
gaining authority in a wrong way. The church also in this time is a kind of
fierce lion ready to devour those who will go against her. This period is so
sad in the point of history of the church.
In my life this is indeed very true. I
was being attacked by the devil in all areas of my life to lead me to go
sinning. Our strength as human is indeed not sufficient to battle the forces. I got tempted a lot of times, but God’s grace
is so evident though I really do deserve punishment. God has been so faithful
in my life despite my unfaithfulness. God uses people to discipline me, while
He also provided people to comfort and encourage me.
God is indeed both a just yet loving God.
We may tend to do wrong things yet God is fair in dealing with us. In myself,
committing it to God is the one thing by His strength I should be doing. God
has manifested His grace so much in my life. He deserves all the glory and honor.
