MINISTER’S MESSAGE
March 1, 2015
Privileged to Serve
ARE YOU A CURIOUS PERSON?
Would you consider yourself a curious person? Is having a
curious mind a good thing to have? There is a Biblical story
recorded for us in Luke 19 about a “wee little man” called
Zacchaeus. Other than in Vacation Bible School, or our weekly
Bible classes, we probably don’t spend much time thinking of
Zacchaeus, BUT, that would be a mistake. Zacchaeus may have
been a wee little man in stature, but don’t sell him SHORT. There’s
a lot of good things we can learn from this man, one of which was
his curiosity. That curiosity, you recall, caused him to run ahead of
Jesus, climb that sycamore tree so that he could see his Lord.
Friend, that curiosity of his brought salvation to his house. Yes,
curiosity can certainly be a good thing.
What about your curiosity? Does it spill over into your
Christianity? You see, it is good to be curious about spiritual things.
Remember the words of the Apostle Paul?: “Prove all things; hold
fast to that which is good.” I Thessalonians 5:21. Jesus told the
Jews to “Search the scriptures” John 5:39. He urged them to also
be “Fruit inspectors” Matthew 7:15-20. What we learn here is
that the Lord gave us eyes, ears, and brains for a reason. Curiosity
leads to investigation, and truth is never hurt by investigation.
Jesus said, “You shall know the truth and the truth shall make
your free.” John 8:32.
When we become curious enough about Bible questions,
we will search for Bible answers. We will become more like the
Bereans we read of in Acts 17… “for they received the message
with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to
see if what Paul said was true.” Curiosity is not something to be
discouraged…it is a good quality to have.
….Charles
