Who’s Report Do You Believe Jesus or Man?

Because of so many options in the world today, along with their emotional attachments, our hearts are endlessly persuaded to other people’s points of view, even when we don’t have a clear understanding of the matter at hand. So many times, we’ll rely on blind faith in that person over our reason. So we base our logic and understanding and wisdom on our misguided, emotional, blind faith. This would explain in some ways why we do the things we do. There is a saying I often use: “It’s the choices we make that determine our position and end in this life,” and where our souls will spend eternity. The Bible tells us that everything is good in our own eye. The Word of God also says this:

1 Corinthians 13:12, 12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. All of us at one time has looked through a glass darkly but now we should see through that glass clearly, that your hope want turn into is just hopelessness.

Proverbs 18:21 says, 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

You hear many times people say things like, “Don’t speak that into existence,” or “Only speak what you know and testify what you see.”

John 3:11 says, 11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

Also, 2 Thessalonians 2:9-13 adds, 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

So there is one question you need to ask yourself: Who’s report do you believe?

The Word of God is telling you in Proverbs 14:12-17, 12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 13 Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. 14 The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself. 15 The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going. 16 A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. 17 He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.

Proverbs 21:2-6 also says, 2 Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the LORD pondereth the hearts. 3 To do justice and judgment is more acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice. 4 An high look, and a proud heart, and the plowing of the wicked, is sin. 5 The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want. 6 The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death.

Matthew Chapter 15

In this chapter we see Jesus isn’t afraid to call others on things that hinder their sanctification in God, even if it is a tradition. We also see Jesus perform signs of healing and other miracles.

Jesus Breaks Religious Traditions Verses 1-20

Jesus makes known to the prominent religious groups of His time that their traditions have impeded their hearts from growing in what He says is true undefilement; Hearts that don’t have evil thoughts of murder, adulteries, fornication, theft, lying and slander are those that remain undefiled. Anyone will know what truly is in your heart by the words you speak.

A Canaanite Woman’s Faith Verses 21-28

Jesus makes it clear to the Canaanite woman that He wasn’t sent but to the lost sheep of Israel, but her faith in Him moved Jesus heart to grant her request to heal her demonized daughter.

Jesus Heals Others Verses 29-31

Jesus heals those mute, blind, deformed, and lame, and for three 3 days the crowd who experienced and saw these miracles stayed with Jesus and praised God for these wonderful works.

Jesus Feeds Thousands Verses 32-39

Jesus had such compassion on this crowd of people who had been with him for that length of time and had nothing to eat, that he decided to miraculously provide for them with only seven loaves of bread and a few fish. 4000 people were fed with 7 baskets of extra food left over!

Summary

Here is what we learned from these amazing stories in chapter 15 of the Gospel of Matthew:

1.Talk and walk Christ (verse 8)
2. Speak the truth no matter what (verse 12)
3. Have Unwavering Faith (verse 28)
4. Stay rooted in Christ (verses 13-14)
5. Feed your heart the right things (verses 18-19)
6. Judge not the outer before meeting the inner. (verses 1-2)
7. Let not tradition determine your salvation. (verses 3-7)
8. Never Forget Jesus’ Abilities (verses 30-38)

What Aspects of Christianity Are You Practicing?

Sometimes our Salvation is predicated on the things that God gives us, what He does for us, or how He feels about us before we take it upon ourselves to say “this is the Creator who created me.” Some people who call themselves Christians are falling into what we might say is the Christian Identity Syndrome, taking the life of Jesus Christ and His word like ordering a meal at a restaurant, where everything is a la carte. Everything in Christianity is expected to be separate items on a restaurant menu, and the assumption is you have the option to choose how you want to serve our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. What aspect of Christianity are you following? What makes you a Christian? Do you not know that there is more than one aspect of Christianity that you are to take into consideration? Anybody can take the good aspects of Christianity, but no one wants to take the disciplinarian aspects of Christianity. The Bible says that whatever a man sows, that shall he reap. If you plant a seed of corn, don’t expect a pear tree to come up. So if you sow anger, strife, hatred, all those things into the ground or into the a person, what you’ll get out is the same negative thing you threw in. If you aren’t putting good stuff within you, good stuff won’t come out of you. If you allow your neighbors, friends or the world to put stuff in you, then what will come out of you are the things they’ve placed in you. Anger, jealously, hatred…so when someone sees you and asks, “What do you have for me?” What comes out will be negative and they will say that you, as a Christian, were evil. Will the real Child of God stand? Stand up in the midst of a battle? When things are not good. Stand. When everything is against you. Stand. When you don’t have money. Stand. But if you’re not a Child of God, you won’t know how to stand. Last time, I read the Word of God, I believe it said He die for total humanity, inclusive of all their sins. What would Christianity look like if man was on a chart like a menu and it had every expectation listed of what God wants from mankind labeled with no time limits? What is God asking from you? Total submission, obedience, love, happiness…He wants you to be joyful…the world goes up and says they only want love. What about obedience, caring, sacrifice? Christianity is not what you want it to be, its what it is. Christian means to be Christ-like. How can you be Christ-like when everything you exemplify is like the world? The Word of God says there is a way that seems right to a man but the end thereof are the ways of death? Why? Because you take Christianity a la carte.

Everyone wants someone to love them, hug them, and be around and care for them, right? In Ecclesiastes 3:1 it says there is a time and season for everything under heaven. There is a time to live and die, time to love and not to love. There is a time to be angry and not, because the Bible tells us we can be angry but not sin. There is a time to plant and there is a time to pick up. People try to do things out of season for their own benefit, because “they felt.” But when you feel, its your will. God is not mocked, what a man sows that shall he reap. God will not make you do anything, because He is not a God of control. He just says if you love Me keep My commandments. By love shall you do them, because out of love you won’t do them. These are the things that people negate because they don’t want that aspect of Christianity. Its just like in a marriage. Each partner does what the other likes out of love. It isn’t right for one of the partners to gansterize the spouse by using their emotions to move them in the direction of control. This is not of God. He said whosoever will let him come. God does not say “you better get in here or else!” God is not gangster. God’s way is to ask, “If you love Me would you do that?” If we say no, He’ll go on about His business, seeking for the soul who will say yes. Blessings then are showered on the one who said yes, and the one who said no gropes and moans about what the other person has. The one who says no talks about Jesus, says he knows Jesus, but his actions shows that they don’t love Him because they don’t do what He asks. The Lord Jesus Christ is not an a la carte God. The Lord tells us in His Word in the book of John 14:15, “If you love me, keep my commandments.” He didn’t say keep some of His commandments or even most of His commandments but all His commandments.

Can you imagine a world where people only live according to the Word of God only most of the time? What a world it would be! We are living in a world like that today. People are choosing what they want to do and how they want to serve the Lord. There are people who call themselves Christians who are literally taking whips of leather with sharp metal grommets, whipping themselves saying “Lord forgive me for my sins!” They forgot about the part that says He suffered and died. He did not ask you to suffer! He paid it all on the cross. What aspect of Christianity do you practice? Our God is an all inclusive God. You have to do it all, not the part that you feel you have control of. As we go forth walking in this life, we know its not going to be easy. They tell you when you’re going to get an education that it won’t be easy. There are 1000 others student who are going for the exact same major. “Well how do I get to the front of the line,” you may ask? Its called favor. When God says that is My child, I will bless them with favor. You came in the right season and at the right time to get your blessing of favor. There is a time and season for everything. When all of it merges together, its in God’s time, and if it is, it will move you, in time.

People are living today like there is no tomorrow, and the Church is doing the same as the world. For example, the Church is dealing with abusers, drunkards, effeminate men, and lesbianism. Everything that goes on in the world, the Church experiences in the Church. It ought not be. Some of the best liars and con men you’ll find are in the House of God. From the pulpit to the floor. It shouldn’t be.

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.


1 Corinthians 6:9-11

No homosexuals will inherit the kingdom. When I was growing up, it was common for Church pianist to be homosexuals. It was a known thing. The keyboard moves people with the melodic sound. If there is a spirit in you, it goes out into your music. The Church Pastors, Deacons, Elders and Ministers didn’t recognize it until it was too late. The leaders in the Church wanted those with an awesome talent to get people happy and excited, so they can go in their pockets. We allow it. You choose what you want to come into your life and mind. I don’t choose for you and God doesn’t choose for you. Because we don’t have an understanding, we choose the wrong thing. All the people mentioned in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 will not be going to Heaven. These types of people are in the Church, the body of Christ of baptized believers who call on the name of the Lord. Somebody opened the door for the mess to come in. Misery likes company. So the weak person gets with the weak person in the Church. If they are jacked up concerning the word, they will make the other person jacked up even more so. If you have a pastor or leader not aware of them being jacked up, and they are placed over something in the Church what happens to that? The Word of God tells us that man’s heart has become so cold that they are choosing everything but God. The people described in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11, God has said we once were. If we were once like that, why bring that mess back into your life again? Why associate with those who are like that again? If you were bound with that before, what will people living like that bring to you? A bound nature.

In this world, the tide has changed and the law has become the lawless. As for the some of those so call Christians of today, they are just like the world but with a topping of Christ, a la carte. You get to pick and choose how and what a Christian is defined by your own understanding and experience. How many have had cake without icing? It was good, but when it had icing, it tasted better. That is how the people of God in the Church who call themselves Christians are like. They have an appearance of Godliness. They have a covering of icing on their heads where when people look at them it is said that they are so sweet. Yet in reality they are like ravenous wolves waiting for the opportunity to tear you down. I don’t want anyone around me who will remind me that I’m living in sin, they say. If that happens I have to attack that individual to make them think less of themselves so they will faint. People gain knowledge and understanding about what they’ve come in contact with and by what people directly or indirectly have taught them. They need to corrupt who you are, so just in case they don’t make it on that last day when they stand before the Lord they can make an accusation before Him against you. They’ll say to the Lord, “Do you realize they did this and that and that and this, and you won’t let me in? I served You too!” When people are caught in a lie, they lie more.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.


1 Corinthians 10:23

What is lawful? Permitted, legitimate, allowable, approved. What is expedient? Convenient, practical, although possibly improper or immoral. All things are permitted, but all things are not practical. All things are allowable for me but all things are not good for me. Its good to drive a car fast, but is it expedient? If you drive too fast, its not good. It may appear to be good and look good. I can look at a dessert and eat it up. It was good to look at and good to taste, but now I’ve gained too much weight. It was good but wasn’t proper for me. Its good to have a job and get money, but not profitable to work overtime everyday.

You can weigh whether a person is a Christian or not by these factors:

1. Their level of ability to comprehend. If a person can’t understand the Word, how will they live it?

2. Their frame of consciousness or state of mind. If you’re trying to be taught something and your not conscious of what is going on, how would you ever understand and know what the Word of God says?

3. Their immediate point of reference. What are you’re conditions in this life? What is your reference point in life? Where did you come from, how did you grow up? In a hard environment or surroundings? Was your state of being disturbed? Was it conducive to you getting a proper understanding in life?

4. What outside influence was in your life? School? Your neighborhood? Outside influences shouldn’t deter you from your walk in Christ.

By asking these four questions, you will be able to answer or explain your perception on any truth on things that effect you in your Christian life and walk. Will you be able to explain to someone why you do what you do, without using someone else words? What does it mean to you to serve the Lord or to live holy or to walk upright before your God? Can you explain that? Christianity is more than just “Saying I am,” its “Doing I am.” No body likes you or wants to be around you. You make everyone feel guilty. Its not you, its the Word of God that is in and around you that makes them feel guilty. Its not about you its about Christ. They don’t like the fact you serve Him.

How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver! The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul. Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud. He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the Lord, happy is he. The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning. Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly. The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him. An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.


Proverbs 16:16-28

Verse 19 explains you need to change your surroundings to people who have a humble spirit, because a high minded person will try to control you. Verse 22-23 tells you not to run your mouth about foolishness or things you don’t know about. Verse 25-28 speaks of the things being taught by an ungodly man. He teaches ungoliness and evil. The burning fire he teaches is not of the Holy Ghost and not of God, but ungodliness.

Where the love of God is there lies truth and understanding of being a true Christian, which mean being just like Yeshua (Jesus Christ). The Lord says if you are My child, you will exhibit ways like Me; talk like Me walk like Me act like Me. People will not know the difference and think it is Me! No one should ever stop you from going forth and being what God wants you to be. They don’t have the right. People feel they have control over you and if it doesn’t work directly, they’ll use things like love to make you do what they say. Only one person can tell you, “If you love Me keep my commandments,” and that is Jesus.

What is wrong with the world today? Its Godless. There is so much control in this society today. Once you get connected to the right source, but leave it, you’re on your own. You may not find another source you can connect to and know you’re hearing from God. Satan doesn’t want you to be connected. He wants you to look like a Christian, walk like a Christian, but be empty. Satan just wants you to be a vessel to carry his mess so he can spread mess to everyone you come in contact with. Paul said you have to die daily to yourself. Why? Because daily offenses come your way. So you have to learn how to die to your flesh. Yet your flesh says, “You know you love it,” but you must say, “No, you’ll not get the victory today.” If you give into it, whose unctioning your flesh? Satan. So when you’re flesh says to do something, and you commit the sin, we go through. When you get up, Satan comes to tempt you again. Its the little things that we do that we think are ok with God that Satan knows which he tempts us with. Satan isn’t trying to convert you to him, he is trying to delay you, getting you hooked on things you’re bound by. He’s good at it. The Bible says if it weren’t for the Holy Ghost, no flesh would be saved, because He’d have to shorten the days. Yet we think we can handle it. If Satan took Christ to the top of the pinnacle of a building and was subject to Satan’s temptations, why do we think we can handle Satan? You are Satan’s enemy. You have to fight and can’t allow yourself to be tricked. Its hard, but if it weren’t how would your faith be tried? You need to be put in the fire as the sword so that when it is beaten, then quenched, it hardens. Then its put into the fire again, and when it is hot, it is beaten again, then quenched again. When it cools, it is sharpened and can cut a piece of hair. God is teaching and trying us, beating us into raw material to be used.

So when you are called by God to somewhere to pray for people, the devils in Hell know you’re on your way. They’ve sent messages because they know you are a sharpened sword, and what comes out of your mouth cuts. The demons don’t want you to be there to affect the people, so when you walk into the room, everything comes to silence, because the of the presence of the Holy Ghost is on you, a vessel that has been sharpened. When you intercede, demons will get out as quickly as possible because they know you are a true, tried solider that has been beaten into place, made sharpened and hardened. They can’t tempt you.

If you aren’t going through something, you’d better check to see if you’re walking the way God wants you to walk, because its a daily test and trial for us. When those days come upon us that we don’t feel the presence of God in our lives, you should know for a fact that He is with you. The Holy Ghost will never leave you. God will never leave you or forsake you. Use the authority and power you’ve been given of the anointing of the Holy Ghost to do what you need to do. That is a good soldier.

Tick, Tock, You’re Time is Running Out

In this day of so many choices, people tend to want to do their own thing. It seem as though there is no sense of morality in their decision making process nor in their lifestyle, and that also includes the Church. It is as though this generation has slipped back into the 1960’s adopting the mindset of “do what you want to do and with whom you want to do it to.” People always say that the times always repeat themselves. I understand that but what I really believe is this: the Bible sort of has that same frame of thought but in a more detailed understanding.

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark…


Matthew 24:37-38

Lets take a look at a list of things that man is doing today and compare them with what the Word of God says.

The World

In the world hate has spread so much and there has been no remorse for the hate that people have for one another in society today.

Love

There is a false understanding of love, and what it means to be loved. People have taken “in love” to be “love.” For many people “love” means to do for me and me along. Love carries a type of attitude where it has become very selfish. People have allowed love to become a tool to be used as a selfish nature; to hurt people to get over on them. Whereas in the Word of God, love “beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth:” 1 Corinthians 13:7-8

Faith

How about faith in the world today or should I say a lack of? The Church is known as people of faith and our whole walk in life and ministry is to be a walk by faith and not by sight, because the Word of God says we can do all things through Him. We need to represent what a walk of faith is. However, we don’t. Not realizing that faith is a principle of counting on what Jesus’ Word says, and believing in that Word. The world teaches to believe in oneself. The mindset is you can do anything yourself; just believe you. You can do it. Not believing what God say, to believe in Him and with Him, all things are possible through Him. We don’t believe this. They take up the motto that “you can do it.” You can’t do anything without Christ because you will fail. Its not by might nor by power, but by His spirit. You can’t do it because you don’t have it. You don’t even know what will happen to you in the next 2 seconds. So you have to put your faith and hope in Christ and it won’t fail.

Humility

The world feels you need to get over on your fellowman. Its not about helping them out but their thought process is “what can I get or gain from them?” In other words, I’ll teach other people to be humble so when I come to them I can get something out of them. The Bible says that we need to be humble. Don’t always want to hear your name mentioned in something that is going great; don’t always want to be on top. You can’t have this type of mind. You must be humble. The Lord will exalt you in due season. Don’t always want to be the one on top. If you see someone who needs to be encouraged, be humble enough to sit back and encourage them. Don’t compare yourself with someone else who is getting praise. Why do you feel that you need to be praised? When you feel this, you need to reexamine yourself; your purpose in the Lord. The Bible never said that this walk would be joyous and you’ll have all the praise of people around you. Its a hard walk that requires faith, where you put all your trust in God. We who are the people of God must be mindful of our humility. Because its about helping others, and looking upon others, to help encourage them, whether you receive praise or not.

Intimacy

What about Intimacy between a man and a woman these days? In the world these days they don’t have it like that. They talk about short term relationships. The world uses the slang “hit and run” or “one night stand” or “short term relationship.” They encourage young people to “try it before you buy it.” In other words, live with a person first without marrying them. That makes no sense. That is just like a car dealer. You ask the dealer to try the car for a while, before consider buying it. He’ll look at you crazily and say “no you must buy it and then use it.” The Church is adopting the same mentality. People want to live with one another before they commit to one another. People say “the Lord knows our heart and knows I want to be with her.” But if He knows that, why do you want to try out the product before you commit to it? The worldly type of mentality concerning that has slipped into the House of God. Men sometimes say, in a relationship like this that if the girl gets pregnant, then he’ll marry her. Is that usually the case? You’ve just given him an option. If you get pregnant I’m gone, and if you don’t I’ll stay there and play in the field for a while. There is no commitment to anything in the world today. Some women are upset with how men have taken advantage of them in this way, that they seek inordinate affections of the same sex, and take advantage of the woman, just as the man took advantage of them. That mindset has become rampant in the world, in so much as our government has passed laws for same sex marriage. All this produces is self-gratification and has nothing to do with a healthy relationship, as a man cannot produce life with another man, nor a woman with a woman.

Pride

What of Pride in the world? In the Church, people take pride of what they own, and also their status in the world. Whether they have money or not own a business or not, or are seen as a leader in society, they take pride in all of that. That is just in the Church alone. In the world, money and riches are their pride. It use to be that people wanted to be a millionaire, but now people want to be billionaires. They want to have things they desire and go where they desire. They want to live as kings in palaces so they can walk about with pride. They live in a state of perpetual self-gratification to make them feel good about themselves, because “I am somebody.” They want power to control others lives. This is what pride has brought them.

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.


2 Timothy 3:1-7

There are a lot of people in the Church and the world who are ever learning about the Bible, but never understanding the truth of what the Bible says. Their heart doesn’t want to live concerning what the Bible says, rather live to do what they want to do, yet they want to use the Bible to condemn someone else! People in the world today know about the Word of God, and if they don’t, they know the 10 commandments. If you understand the 10 commandments, then you’re already guilty of what the Bible says if you aren’t living by it.

Its imperative that we do what the Word of God says. Women are going after woman, men after men, and even children after children for the purpose of lust of the flesh. Let us not forget what God has brought us to. All of the things that God has said are going to happen in the last days. The clock is tick, tocking away, and God is waiting for you to make the decision to live totally for Christ or live in the world. He said He’d rather us to be hot or cold but not lukewarm. Lukewarm Christians are trying to live in the Church and the world. Having a form of godliness but denying the power they are suppose to be serving. The world is looking to the Church for an answer, yet they can’t get it because the Church is standing beside the world, doing the same things as the world! So we need to be very careful of how we are perceived of the world and others. The Bible says don’t let your good be evil spoken of. If you want to live in the world, live totally in the world. Don’t try to put one foot in the world and the other in the Church. If you are doing sin in the world, then you’re in the world in the first place, whether you are in the House of God or not.

How long halt you between two opinions? Do you serve God or the world? He won’t look at you as being in the middle, He will put you to one side or the other. If He doesn’t see the move of God and Holy Ghost in you you’ll be in the world anyhow. If you aren’t living concerning the Word, then you are in the world. There is no commonality. You’re either in the world or you’re in the Church. Christ will not die on the cross again for your confusion. You need to make a decision, here and now. Will you live for Christ or the world? The world may include your lifestyle; what you do to satisfy yourself. Is that satisfying God or you alone? It makes you feel good because you can’t see God, and because you can’t see Him, you think its alright. You see the situation better and you like doing it. The Bible says blessed is he who has not seen and believed.

Bear in mind only what you do for Christ will last. What you do for the world will last as long as the world looks at you and places pride and joy on you. When that is gone, you’re gone. You can see leaders in history, who started out in greatness. When they fell once, their name through the annals of history was marked with shame from the same people who gave them fame! You have to realize that you have to give an account of all that you say, promise and do in this world. Every word uttered from our mouths is being recorded. Since you know and understand, why not walk upright before God, doing what is right, not listening to fables of men and their uneducated knowledge concerning the Word of God? Sure people read the Bible, but not with an understanding that only comes from God. So we ask you to bear in mind of what the Word of God has said. Today is the day of change. The moment you hear His voice, obey, and harden not your heart as in the day of evil.

Putting God’s Seal of Approval on your Sin

“Putting God’s seal of approval on you Sin for an Excuse”

How many times have you said “God understands me?” What about the statement “He’s still working on me,” as to say He understands me? So its ok when we quote the word as our justifying weapon. “Christ died for me true enough, but I’m only human!” Being human does not give you the unction to continue to sin.

Romans 3:23-24

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

“We all are sinners, saved by grace,” is the statement we hear people say right after they’ve sinned. But those are just excuses to justify what they’re doing. How long does it take one not to sin? The same length of time it takes to do the sin. The reason we can’t say no to sin is because we’re so busy saying yes to the mess. Some people want to stay in their mess, because they’re at home in their mess. You ever seen pigs, out in the field, jumping up and having a good time? But as soon as they get to a mud puddle, they roll in and and make funny noises. Don’t you know you you’re in a mess? The pig looks up and says, what a mess it is. Some people like to write stores about their mess. They are enjoying their mess. God is still working on me. I’m just a new Child of God and I’m just getting use to God’s rule. I’m not talking about the world, I’m talking about saints, trying to put God’s seal of approval on their mess. How long do you stay short of His glory?

Romans 8:33-34

Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he
that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

We can not go on thinking its ok to go on and sin and think Christ will just be born again through Mary and go through the entire process again. Every time you do a mess, you put Him up on the cross, and then you lie about it and try to justify it. If you are a sinner, don’t half step it. If your going to sin, go all the way.

Hebrews 10:22-27

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

Do you know how to get back in the graces of God? Or are you still living in that same mess you were in before? If we willfully sin, Christ won’t get back on the cross again. The wages of sin is death. Not a physical death, but a death of the soul.

1 Peter 4:1-6

Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries: Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you: Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead. For this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

One must remember that Jesus dying on the cross wasn’t for us to continue in our old ways that we had in the world nor to justify our weakness in our sinful nature or revive sin that we can’t seem to get over.

1 Corinthians 6:8-11

Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren. Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

 

This not to your condemnation but to your salvation in Christ Jesus.

Hebrews 3:6-8

But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end. Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

In my conclusion: Know this the time is now that when you hear the Rhema in “Greek means utterance” words of truth of Jesus and those words become Zao in Greek meaning “ living or alive “ to you, then you need to live it while there is life in your body!
