Priorities Part 2

   My sophomore year of high school, I enrolled in a class called SC Best. (Cool fact, I was still at Dorman but on my official transcript, the class was credited to being held at Oakbrook Prep School.) SCBEST stands for Spartanburg County Bible Education during School Time. I would highly recommend this class to anyone possibly looking into ministry, or just wanted to know more about Christianity.
   In this class, we got very educated about alot of aspects of Christianity, fast. We studied the smallest details, the smallest yet vastly significant statements and events in the Bible. We covered almost everything. It was like a mini seminary.
   Now Friday, we talked about practical priorities. We talked about always putting God first, family next, your ministry, your friends, etc.
   Now we are going to talk about the priorities of the Bible. One mindset we must break is that the Bible is about alot of different things. Let me clarify, the Bible does talk about a ton of different things, but the Bible is About one thing. Christ. Him dying for our sins so ULTIMATELY we can be with God the Father because of the sacrifice of Christ. I urge you, never get so engrossed in the eduaction of different aspects of the Bible that you forget that it is about the Gospel. That life itself is about living it and proclaiming it in our lives for all eternity.
