Two words which pertain to most of this life, if not all of this life.
Posted : 23 May, 2022 08:12 AM

Hello everyone,

I believe there are two words which do not seem very important to most, yet have great importance to every relationship, and every decision people make.

These two words might reveal how a person understands this life, and the relationships they may or may not have.

These two little seemingly unimportant words are ' NEED and WANT'.

A man may be thinking do i NEED a wife,or do i WANT a wife.

Do i need friends, or do i want friends.

Do i need Yeshua, or do i want Yeshua.

Once a need has been met,( job friends, car, reisdence, wife, SALVATION,etc. do i need for those needs to be filled again.

Later when i find i need another car, job, residence etc. Do i then need the old, outdated, not needed part(s) of my life.

How about a wife, do i need a wife, or do i want a wife.

If i need a wife, what happens when i find i no longer need her, do i get rid of her in order to find a newer, prettier, healthier wife to replace her.

How about Messiah, after He has saved me, do i need Him anymore, do i want Him.

Most christians show they do not want Him, as most have no idea who He is, or what He is like.

@Ohio

Ohio, when a person has trusted Yeshua for salvation, do they stop there or do they want to know who Messiah is and what He is like.

With most people called 'christian', the answer is NO they do not want to know Him,they want to do the 'christian' things, go to dah church, be told what to do, hear someone tell them what to believe, pay their club dues, and have juice and crackers once a month, go home never open the Word for themselves to see what GOD ALMIGHTY says about Himself, and themselves.

Yet they believe they have a relationship with Messiah.

These people have no idea who He is, or what He is like, as the Word stays closed even though they may have it next to the television.

I get your point now. You confused me with want and need. Now that God has saved us, truly, we both need and want Him. God works in us so that we desire and work for His good pleasure (philippians 2:13).

@ohio

Yes, exactly.

Now concerning the divorce rate, the christians have a higher divorce rate than the world, why?

Simple, NEED or WANT.
