2438) Weight loss programs and easy “fixes” have become a big business in our country. Every company seeks to tip the scales and bring the unhealthy in.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this, but it’s easy to overlook other things we should be weighing other than our bodies.

Acts 17:11 tells us that several in Thessalonica were making it a priority to weigh people’s words who were speaking for God.

This example of people who were not just taking the word for what they said about God and scripture is important.

Some may claim they cannot weigh the words of people who say they represent God because they’re not educated enough about biblical things. An answer to this is: then get educated. Scrutinizing and looking closely at the spiritual things we come into contact with is prudent.
