There is no plan B!

So I heard a message from the book of Jonah and the issue of faith came up, and I am sure as most people know some way of being able to explain it in one way of another but this evening I heard one of the best ways to explain it...

"Mountain climbers understand faith!"

You see as a climber you scale high walls with many little crack that you put your fingers into as you make your way up... you also have a rope that you attach as you go right. So what happens if you slip? You fall and the rope is designed to stop you from falling to a certain death... thats plan A. what happens if the rope fails? You die, there is no plan B! That's the bottom line, as a climber all your faith is in that rope not failing if you loose your grip.

This is the faith we need to have in Christ, He is our "lifeline" after Him there is nothing that can prevent certain death.

This is really hard to swollow because we as humans like to think that we know all sorts of fancy was to cheat death and live as though some divine hand will come and catch us if the rope snaps.


Heb 11:1 "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (KJV)
