The Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary defines bottom line as: " the most important thing that you have to consider or accept; the essential point in the discussion".
In the world today, many notable people, (dead and alive), have made statements that have become timeless and without borders. Such statements are on various topics, and many people have come to take them as their guiding principle in life. Some of these notable figures said things that are accepted by the majority, others said things that are controversial.
Whether those famous men and women said what the majority accepted or what brought about controversy, they were only expressing their opinions. No matter how sophisticated the individual may have been or may still be, no matter the oratory prowess, no matter the educational advantage, all amounts to nothing because the Word of the Lord is the bottom line on any issue or any human endeavour, now or in eternity.
Many have identified with some places of worship of God and yet with divers opinions as per how to worship Him. Some opinions say that God is so kind that He cannot afford to cast His own creatures into a lake that burns wit fore and brimstone. Some are of the opinion that once born again, always born again no matter how they live their lives. Others are of the opinion that religion is in the heart, so what they wear is of no importance to God or how they carry themselves. Some other people are of the opinion that God is not interested on what they eat or drink, and so on.
You may have one or more of these opinions; that is why you have stopped attending church. It is because of these opinions that you expose your nakedness in the name of fashion and yet you belong to a place of worship. Due to your pastor's opinion, he has not told you that you are on your way to eternal doom!!!
Your opinion has made you say that it doesn't matter to put on the dresses of the opposite s*x. Is it not because of your opinion that you still keep that girl friend or boy friend and yet you are in the church? It is due to your opinion that makes it impossible to distinguish you from the world while professing Christianity.Your opinion has bound you to chains of smoking and taking of alcoholic drinks. It is due to your opinion that there is a place called purgatory where you could go after death to be purged and made fit for heaven that you live this careless life and are satisfied with your rag-like moral life. It is due to your opinion about the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ that you live as though this world is your final abode, as if no record is kept, as if Jesus has gone to heaven never to return again.
God's opinion says that there is a way that seems right to a man but the end of it is death (Prov. 14:12). His opinion is that the wages of sin is death (Rom. 6:23). His opinion is that the wicked and all the nations that forget God shall be thrown into hell (Psm. 9:17). His opinion is that you should not love this world or the things that are in the world (1 Jn. 2:15-17). God's opinion says that the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God... (1 Thess.4:16).
Friend, let there be twelve thousand opinions, the only opinion that counts is the opinion of God; because His word is the ! Notwithstanding, what anybody might have taught you. Permit me a friendly plainess with you: I am concerned about yours soul or nothing else. Don't forget that the wound of a friend is better than the flattery of the harlot! It would be terrible to find out that your opinion was baseless when you are already in the hell you played down on its existence. Friend, come away from your opinion and follow the opinion of God no matter how old-fashioned you think it is; it is simply the ! This is because you have a soul that cannot die; you shall surely live forever in hell or heaven. Is your opinion different? If I cannot get your consent to come away from your opinion, then I shall leave you miserable but I weep for you. Please Read (Rev. 20:10-15) and run now before you opinions run you over! Don't wait until you are turned away from the !! when you shall cry; alas! I had a wrong opinion about God, though it was the popular opinion, but now I have found out it was not my opinion that mattered or that of my mentor. Alas! I am lost and lost forever!!! Then into hell fire you are thrown...
Your opinion must align with the word of God because it is the !!
To operate in the opinion of God, you must be born again, and to be born again, you must accept that you are a sinner and sincerely confess those sins to God, such as fornication, adultery, homos*xuality, lesbianism, lying, covetousness, hypocrisy, eye service, cultism, hatred, fighting, quarreling, disobedient and all the deed that offend God. Then accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. Believe that His blood has washed you clean forsake all the sins and then tell everybody that Jesus has set you free!!!!
