How bright is your bulb?
For a moment, I would like us to consider "intensity". There are words we use each and every day without really having a thorough understanding of their meaning. When we "dig into" the meaning of a word, we often get insight into how God describes things in scripture. Intensity if often thought of as that event or circumstance that creates some type of emotional response within us that has us "sitting on the edge of our seats", tension mounting, blood pressure rising, heart rate increasing, the mind set to respond with fight or flight. As a matter of fact, we pay good money to go see movies that will elicit this response from us all within a two-hour window! I can’t impress this on you too strongly. God is looking over your shoulder. Christ himself is the Judge, with the final say on everyone, living and dead. He is about to break into the open with his rule, so proclaim the Message with intensity ; keep on your watch. Challenge, warn, and urge you...
