"Stumblingblock - Part 3"
Daniel Valles

READ Genesis 12:10-13:13

I think if Abraham had not gone down to Egypt, Lot would not have ventured near Sodom.  We could have eliminated the distasteful accounts and dealings with the sodomites in all of chapter 14, 18:20-33, and all of chapter 19!  All of this because of a stumblingblock!

What kind of Christian are you?  Are you one who restrains yourself in your 'liberties', seeks guidance, wisdom, and strength from God's Word, and actively labors to remove the stumblingblocks from other's lives?  A stumblingblock does not a huge concrete barrier.  In the world, we can stumble on a piece of carpet raised a quarter of an inch!  It does not take much to cause someone else to stumble.  Remove the offenses and stumblingblocks.  Any Christian's walk for Christ does not need stumblingblocks.
