Sins and Sinners

We live in a prideful and sinful world.  It’s full of greed, hate, segregation, racism, demonic forces, and so much more evil.  The church (body of Christ) has dissension with-in the church. Walls have been built between different denominations because of by-laws (man-made rules).  There are so many sinners’ indulging in every imaginable aspect of sin. It’s time for sinners, lukewarm Christians, and those that have turned their backs on God to change.  It’s time for revival in the Church and awakening of “God consciousness” in our nation!  We have become Proud, Arrogant, Sinful, Boasters, an evil and corrupt nation. Many sinners are so blinded to the world they don’t even want to hear about God.  Christians have become very judgmental and stagnant.  Our currency states, “In God We Trust”.  Yeah, right!  As a nation we have turned our backs on God.  Two out of every three individuals proclaiming to be Christians are just playing games and really do not have a true relationship with Jesus or God.  During this last National Day Of Prayer, not one, yes, not one politician showed up!

*God is holy and righteous (Rom. 1:17)
*Man is sinful and his heart is evil (Gen. 6:5; 13:13; Jer. 17:9).
*All people know that God exists (Rom. 1:21)
*All people have sinned (Rom. 3:23a)
*All people are guilty before God (Rom. 1:18-3:8)
*Judgment is self-induced (Rom. 1:18-23)
*Sin dishonors God and contradicts His Holy character (Rom. 1:17)
*God will judge every person, Jew and Gentile (Rom. 2:5; 2:12-16)
*God never forgives any sin without full payment of the penalty for that sin (Rom. 3:25)
*Propitiation is the only saving solution to the fact of God’s wrath against sin. (Propitiation is the appeasement of divine wrath by a sacrificial offering. Sending Christ to die for our sins was God’s amazing solution to the problem of how He could remain just (punish all sin) and still justify us (declare us perfectly righteous in His sight) (Is. 53:4, 5, 10, 11; Rom. 3:25)
*The gospel of salvation is a free gift that cannot be earned (Rom. 1:16, 17; 3:20, 23, 24, 28, 30; 4:5: 6:23)
*Saving faith can only come through hearing and believing the Bible’s message about Christ (Rom. 1:16; 10:14-17)
*Justified means to be declared righteous in God’s sight (Rom. 3:24)
*God imputes (imparts) righteousness to those who believe (Rom. 4:3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 22, 23, 24)
*Believers, who have been freely forgiven of sins because of Christ’s work, will be given degrees of reward in heaven. This is according to their actions in this life; heaven is the eternal home of born-again believers (Rom. 3:21-26; Mth. 16:27; 25:31-46; John 5:29; Rom. 14:10-12; 1 Cor. 3:10-15; 2 Cor. 5:9, 10; Rev. 7:15-17)
*Those who reject Christ will be judged for their sins. The consequences of willful disobedience are horrible indeed. The Bible speaks of an endless, conscious torment in hell (Rom. 2:6; Rev. 20:10, 15)

JESUS PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE TO OFFER US SALVATION AND ETERNAL LIFE. WHAT WE HAVE TO DO IS BELIEVE IN JESUS AS THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, BELIEVE IN HIS DEATH AND RESURRECTION, ASK GOD TO FORGIVE US OF OUR SINS, AND ACCEPT JESUS AS OUR PERSONAL LORD AND SAVIOR. WE MUST ADMIT WE ARE SINNERS AND ASK GOD TO TAKE AWAY OUR SINS, FILL OUR HEARTS WITH LOVE, AND LIVE FOR HIM THROUGH CHRIST JESUS. CHRISTIAN MEANS CHRIST LIKE. EACH AND EVERY DAY WE MUST STRIVE TO BE MORE LIKE HIM. YES, WE WILL FAIL! YES, SATAN WILL ATTACK US AND PLACE DOUBTS IN OUR MINDS! YES, SATAN WILL SEND TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS! BUT, THE GOD WE SERVE WHEN THINGS ARE GOING GREAT AND WE ARE ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN, IS THE SAME GOD WHEN WE ARE IN THE VALLEY.

RECEIVING SALVATION AND ETERNAL LIFE IS SIMPLE. WALKING THE WALK IS THE DIFFICULT PART!..

Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned..
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son. Who so ever believes in him SHALL NOT perish but have EVERLASTING life.

*Those who reject Christ will be judged for their sins. The consequences of willful disobedience are horrible indeed. The Bible speaks of an endless, conscious torment in hell (Rom. 2:6; Rev. 20:10, 15)

For God’s Children, Jesus will be returning soon for us!!

For those who reject Jesus is eternal fire and damnation!!
