Thoughts About A Fence

We often hear of the importance of choosing the Lord's side. "... choose you this day whom ye will serve; ... as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Joshua 24: 15

Recently I heard a story about a person sitting on a fence. Christ was on one side and was encouraging the fence sitter to get off the fence and join him. Satan was on the other side of the fence. The fence sitter asked Satan why he wasn't encouraging him in the same way Christ was. Satan's reply, "You don't understand. I own the fence." 

That really caught my attention. I’d never thought about it that way before. But it’s true; if we’re on the fence about a gospel principle then we’ve already moved towards Satan and away from Christ.
