Reflection of the Day - 3/22/2009

Today Mental Image:

A Look At My Roots

Smothered In Quaker Tradition ?

If it's not in the example of Christ -

Its's a tradition of men.

If it stands against one of Christ's teachings -
Its's a tradition of men.

If it denies one of Christ's teachings -

It's a tradition of men.

If it does not communicate the biblical truth it is supposed to obey -

It's a tradition of men.

You are my friends

if  you do what I have commanded;

not because you may have long Quaker Roots.

Are you immersed in Christ ?

Or are you smothered in Quaker tradition -

They are - after all - the traditions of men.

(even at their best)
