Walk By The Same Rule

 "Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing."  Philippians 3:16.  There is a rule which has been delivered by the Lord Jesus Christ by which we are to walk and please him.  As we examine the religious landscape, do we see one rule or many different rules?  Do all walk by the same rule or do we seek to walk by different rules?  The rule of God has been given to us in the Bible.  The rule has been written so that all might know and walk accordingly.  Our desire should always be to please and glorify our God.  Therefore, we must seek his way, not our own way.  There are also not to be many interpretations of this rule.  We are to simply walk by the rule which God has given and all mind the same thing.  God wants unity among those who believe in him and follow him.  The only way that we please God is by following the rule which has been given to us.  Rather than all of the division that we see in various religious societies, let us seek to be as one and united by believing and accepting as divine truth the rule that God has spoken.
