I have been guilty of covetousness, deceit, murder, lying, disobedience, backbiting, and I may as well confess--all the Ten Commandments. You may say; what a terrible person I must be to be guilty of all those sins. And you would be right. And certainly, condemnation would be in order. But before you begin pointing fingers at me, all I ask is that you simply go to your bathroom mirror and look at the reflection you see there. Because you too are quite possibly guilty of those same offenses. Now, I don"t look so bad, do I?<br />
<br />
Why do I know all this? The Bible states it. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. That means you and I. It also says that like sheep we have all gone astray and laid upon Him the iniquity of us all. You may ask how we could get into such a predicament. The truth is, we were born into it. We suffer from the results of the original sin of Adam and Eve at the Garden of Eden when they ate that forbidden apple.<br />
God forbid them to eat of the fruit of the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. But Satan convinced them that God was placing an undue restriction upon them. So they ate.<br />
<br />
So we find ourselves in a seemingly hopeless dilemma. The penalty for our guilt is Death in Hell for an eternity. We can't save ourselves. What can we do? The Bible says to Repent and seek the Lord. If we repent and confess Jesus Christ as Lord, and believe in our hearts that God raised him from the Dead, we (you ) will be saved. (paraphrased) (Romans 10: 9-10).God will send the Holy Spirit to live in your heart and you can begin to serve Him in spirit and truth. The scriptures say "Today is the day of Salvation".<br />
<br />
His free gift is waiting for you to receive it. Don't disappoint Him. He will remove your guilt. I am no longer guilty. Are you?chuckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11911394228011909802noreply@blogger.com0
