Zeus’ mid Life Crisis

Wednesday, March 8, 2023

In Greek mythology, the king of the gods was Zeus. He was married to Hera. Zeus was always carrying on affairs with gods and mortals. He actually would take human form and animal form. This was Greek religion. Gods of the ancient world were projections of people projected onto gods. Zeus was a fantasy of a lot of frustrated, middle-aged Greek men going through a midlife crisis. Pagan. You project; you make your own god. It’s not just the pagans who do this. Believers often do that, too. We make God into our own image. We project our ideas onto God. We downplay parts of His Word to conform to our lives. We’re no better than the pagans when we’re making God into our own image, instead of conforming our life to Him. That’s pagan because it doesn’t bring any life. Stop trying to conform God to your image. This is an impossible task. Instead, start letting your life conform to His Word. We are to be transformed into the same image from glory to glory.

From Message #186 – The Virgin Birth 
Scripture: Romans 12:2

TODAY’S MISSION – Let yourself be conformed completely to the Word. Take the Word at full strength and do not project your own ideas. Be a projection of His image, today.
