Long Shortcuts -Matthew 7:13

"A shortcut is oft the longest distance betwixt 2 points.” Anonymous

This is peculiarly truthful when talking virtually the wide highway to devastation or the narrow route to Jesus. (Matthew 7:13-14).

I idea of this when reading the hundreds of rules listed inward the majority of Exodus.

Adam together with Eve had ane rule...just one…don’t consume the fruit of ane tree. 

But Satan told them virtually a shortcut: they could suspension that ane dominion together with move similar God (Genesis 3).

That shortcut damaged their souls, making them less similar God, together with it laid upwards into house a redemption conception which included, alongside other things, hundreds of Old Testament rules.

Whenever nosotros direct maintain a shortcut from God's path, we're truly choosing the longest distance betwixt 2 points.
