Part of my work is, duplication. Duplication is where I take a 'master' copy (a CD or DVD) place it in a duplicator and out comes copies of the master. As a matter of fact, the copies are so much like the master that you can't even tell the difference between the master and the copies. I'm sure there are some differences between the two, BUT the differences are not really noticeable to the ear. This really preaches to me. In this we see the making of a true 'disciple' a copy of the Master. Truly, we are all a bunch of blanks. We have nothing to offer. We are totally nothing! What good is a blank CD? You can place it in the CD player and nothing happens. It has no sound to share. However, it goes through the motions of a real CD....it spins and spins yet NOTHING comes out. There has to be a transfer from the Master to the blanks. This was Jesus' life and ministry while on the earth. Making people sound and look (His nature) just like Him! I believe we have a lot of blanks today. People who haven't had the transfer from the Master. Their lives are blank and empty. But, they try to sing and to preach and to put off a good sound. BUT, they are blank...they have no data from the Master. Most of the time, He will have to remove all the old data and RE-MASTER us. This is a very painful process. Religious data and worldly data and tradational date must be removed. Thank God we are RE-RECORDABLE! Not just a ONE TIME use! Are we true disciples of Christ? Has there been a transfer from Him to us? Do you sound like Him? Do we have His nature? How can we claim to be His disciples and not sound like Him? Let's get in the duplicator and receive His data...
Just Thinking, James
