The Bible is the ultimate Yardstick

Indeed the Bible is the ultimate Yardstick that all reference of who God is from the Bible. What is unexplainable, can it just be explained with Words? Aren't words just a form of language too, or part of a language?

So what is a Yardstick?
From http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/yardstick
1a. A graduated measuring stick 3 feet
1b. A standard basis of calculation
2. A standard for making a critical judgement / a rule or specific idea about what is acceptable or desirable that is used to judge or measure something (definition from EL-Speaking)

Perhaps I have become very relative....or into the Law or relativity..but Albert Einstein...that I will not place any form of judgement upon a situation. Neutral non-offensive stand. Peace is my middle name. What is the meaning of peace?
From
: a state of tranquillity or quiet: as a : freedom from civil disturbance b : a state of security or order within a community provided for by law or custom
2
: freedom from disquieting or oppressive thoughts or emotions
: harmony in personal relations
4
a : a state or period of mutual concord between governments b : a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity
5
—used interjectionally to ask for silence or calm or as a greeting or farewell
— at peace
: in a state of concord or tranquillity

Guess that defines me more.... haha....well to be driven or led is better? To always measure by standards or to flow ? Where is the line? Like one question? Where is the line between Obeying God and dishonouring our parents? Maybe I love people than I love God

So if then.....I am sorry God.... I am not prefect and selfish..... You are always so faithful.

Compromise

Wen are you most vunlerable to compromise? We most likely compromise when our reputation is on the line or when we think that no one is looking. If no one knows, no one gets hurt; but is that really true? There are many things that we can do to merely survive, but "if we make survival the chief goal, we very often can survive but what do we become in the process? To survive we pay the price of bondage. But if we settle the issue of survival, we are truly free. Survival wasn't the issue for Jesus. Jesus was willing to die, hence no one could make him do anything that would compromise his integrity or mission." There are characters in the bible that stood the test of reaminging faithful to God or failed by compromising in order to survive. In Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow down to the statue of King Nebuchadnezzar despite facing death, and God protected and honored their faithfulness. Others like David compromised once with Bathsheba, which led down him the path of further compromise, murdering Uriah, so that he could save his reputation and survive as king. In the latter half of David's life, we see how the sins he committed as a young man, although forgiven for, had consequences for his family. Will you choose to live a life of righteousness because you know that God sees everything, including the motives of your heart? Choose holiness and God will surely adorn you with your crown of life at your time of reunion with him.
