Thursday after Lent 4

Wooden Cross with Red Cloth

21 And then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ’; or, ‘Behold, He is there’; do not believe him; 22 for false Christs and false prophets will arise, and will show signs and wonders, in order to lead astray, if possible, the elect. 23 But take heed; behold, I have told you everything in advance. ~ Mark 13:21-23 (NASB)

There are false Christs everywhere. Some people look to politicians for their salvation. Others worship entertainers or athletes or socially and financially prominent people. Whether these people claim to be saviors, many people look to them for salvation. Let us always remember that there is only one Savior, Jesus Christ, the Lord.

Lord, keep my eye fixed on Jesus. Let me recognize the false prophets and the false Christs and cling to the one true God—You, the Lord, the Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
