Paul described me-vision in the book of Philippians when he said, For all seek their own,

not the things which are Jesus Christ’s. Myopic Christians are self-centered. They do not see clearly

the needs of those who are outside their own little worlds.

These me-vision believers are those who have not added character to their faith. They do not

have qualities such as virtue, knowledge, self-control, and love. The Bible says that when someone does

not have these qualities, he is blind and cannot see afar off.

A myopic Christian is wise in his own eyes but foolish in God’s sight. He is vain in his

thinking, and he cannot see the perils that he will face in the future.

The Apostle John was on the island of Patmos. He heard a loud voice saying that Jesus is the Alpha

and Omega, the first and the last. John turned toward the speaker. He saw the Lord Himself in dazzling

glory. The title Alpha and Omega, refers to the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet. This tells us that

Jesus is the beginning and end of history.

Even the English word alphabet comes from the first two letters of the Greek alphabet: alpha and beta.

Children begin to read by learning the letters of the alphabet. Christians who want to find the riches

of Scripture in the original language of the New Testament start by becoming familiar with the letters

of the Greek alphabet, too.

we recognize Greek letters, a New Testament word becomes an understandable term, rather

than meaningless squiggles on a . A person learns the Greek in alphabetical order will

be able to use the many useful study tools that are organized alphabetically in . (Once, page,

The Mayflower Compact was signed by forty-one Pilgrim men before they even went ashore. It

became one of the first legal documents of the American colonies. It is rich with Biblical foundations.

The courageous men and women who fled the tyranny and religious persecution of England carried the

principles of God’s Word to the shores of the New World.

The American colonies grew, they were governed by laws enacted from an understanding of

Biblical Law. All thirteen colonies were granted jurisdiction from the king to uphold law. It was developed

after the pattern of English law. They were under the direct authority of the English Crown, the

colonies became largely self-governing because of slow communication little interest from England.

After George III became king in 1770, tensions grew. The English Parliament ignored charter and

laws already in place and sought to bring the colonies under direct control. These injuries from the king

caused fighting to break out in April 1775. In December, Parliament cut off trade with the colonies and

removed them from the king’s protection. England was waging war against its former colonies.

People’s ideas of God have changed a lot over time. However, God does not change. This is why

our ideas of God must be the same as Who He truly is. If we do not know Who God is, we cannot find

our place in relation to God. When we think God is something that He is not, we are sinning.

We are saying things about God that are not worthy of Him. This is called idolatry.

When someone is practicing idolatry, assume God is something is not. Instead of thinking

of the real God, think of something that is like are. This new “god” is just like the person

who made . will be good or bad, just like the person who made it. This “god” will not be faithful

to the person. Even more importantly, will not be like the real God.

When we think about God, we normally think about the most important thing about ourselves.

If we are very kind, we tend to think about God as a God of mercy, which He is. We also have to

remember that God is just. If we do not think about all of God’s character, we are not thinking about

the real God. Instead, we are thinking of a god we made up. This is a form of idolatry.

The Hebrew word for music gives the idea of a traveling musician, someone who does not stay in

message. It will influence those who hear it—for good or for evil.

thought he would spend the rest of his life in prison because he could not pay his bills. Money was

not his only need. He knew he was a spiritual beggar. He knew he needed Jesus. God had a purpose

for this man.

When the publican came the Temple, he walked humility. He knew he was not righteous

like the Pharisee claimed to be. The publican knew he lived sin. He knew he was not worthy to come

the presence the Lord. He was aware how great and holy God was. He knew he could never

get heaven his own.

His sin made even the riches that he had meaningless. He saw the scorn in the eyes of the

Pharisee. When he compared himself to the Pharisee, he knew he was unworthy even to be in the Temple.

He knew he could not approach God in his own goodness. When he compared himself with a holy and

just God, he thought he was one of the most inadequate men on earth.

He was so ashamed of who he was, he would not even look up when he prayed. When he prayed,

he looked down at the ground. He was afraid to look up to a holy God. He prayed in humilty and

asked for God to have mercy on him, a sinner.

We are commanded to break up our fallow ground. Therefore, the questions we must ask are,

“How does one do this?” and “What does it mean?” It means to prepare our minds and hearts to bear

fruit. the Bible, the mind is often compared the ground. The Word God is compared seed.

The fruit is compared the actions and attitudes those who receive the seed. To break up the fallow

ground is to put our hearts the right state, so they can receive the Word God.

Sometimes our hearts become “matted down.” They become like hard and dry ground. When they

become hard, they cannot bear fruit. To allow the seeds to take root, the ground must be broken up.

Then it must be mellowed and fitted for service. It is this softening of the heart that must be done

before truth can be received. This is what the prophets called “breaking up your fallow ground.”

Our hearts become hard when we sin without repentance. There are many different ways that we

allow our hearts to become hard. We sometimes allow our hearts to grow accustomed to sin and unable

to stand up for what is right. Also, we can repeat sins again and again until we fail to see the effects of

what we are doing. We will not always feel the need to repent. We must base our need for repentance

on what Scripture says, not on what we think or feel.

The prodigal once had worked for his father. must have imagined what life would be like

somewhere else. must have thought about what a life without rules would be like. also might

have thought that his father’s rules were outdated. probably thought his father’s business would be

better without the standards.

The prodigal son demanded his inheritance. He then left for a far country. He indulged himself

in any pleasure he wanted. He was encouraged in this by his friends. He was in no mood to mourn

over how he had grieved his father. His ungodly living had many consequences. He hurt his father’s

reputation. He also ruined his financial position. Most importantly, he broke the clear rules of Scripture.

A famine happened at the same time that the prodigal son’s money was gone. He used to have a

sense of security that came from his money, friends, and independence. When his money ran out, he

had to go back to taking orders. These orders were harsher than the ones his father had given.

During cross-examination, a lawyer asks a witness many questions. It can be the most exciting

time of a trial. The most powerful means of searching out the truth is cross-examination. There

are several rules a lawyer must follow during cross-examination. A Christian should know the rules of

cross-examination and use them on himself. There are many reasons we should do this. One reason to

do this is that Word says if we judge ourselves, we will not be judged.

A lawyer must know the answers to the questions he asks. From the very beginning, a witness

should know that the lawyer knows the truth. The lawyer must be to the witness what God is to us.

God knows the answers to all things. Every time He asks us a question, He already knows the answer.

A human lawyer does not know all things. He must know the answers to the questions he asks, though.

This sometimes takes a lot of work, but it is worth the effort.

We can use this rule of cross-examination on ourselves in many different ways. One way we do

this is to know what Word says about things. Another is to search for all the facts in a case.

This takes diligence and patience. We also need to pray that the Holy Sprit will reveal what is the truth.
