Leland Maples runs the LOOP’s Ministries (Loved Ones Of Prisoners) and leads a Thursday night bible study held in the Rec Room at Life Change Baptist Church in Odessa Texas.  The Rec Room message on Thursday, August 26th was entitled “God’s Zero Tolerance.”  Special music was by Charlie Williams at this meeting.  {C}The message spoke that there are certain infractions that have no negotiation or leniency.  This is called zero tollerance.  Schools have certain rules that apply zero tollerance to those who break them; so do businesses and other entities in our society.  God Himself introduced zero tolerance.  In all of His mercy and grace, there are some things that even He will not tolerate.  1. Jesus Christ is the way.  2. Jesus Christ is the truth.  3.  Jesus Christ is the life.  John 14:1-6 KJV says “1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. 5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
