If I lived in ancient Israel, I probably would've gotten killed for breaking the law in a levitical context. Thank you GOD for bringing me up in this time (the end as it is) that I may look back and reflect on how my Savior died for me and how He fulfilled the law!!!
The law being fulfilled is a beautiful thing because if it weren't, we'd still be punishable by death and not have an opportunity to repent. Had that been me, I would've not gotten the opportunity to repent for my sins and be made anew. I wouldn't be here to receive GODโS mercy!!
Ancient people were killed for their sexual sins. We're no longer under the law that demands this. That doesn't mean that you can go be sexually immoral. Learn from history and fear GOD because if the law were still intact, most people would die at the hands of the it.
We shouldn't be sexually immoral, not because it is no longer punishable by death (Leviticus 20), but because it was โ and that should make us fear GOD to a point where we don't want to be sexually immoral. Thatโs one of the ways how fear in the LORD should look like.
Seeing people talk about GOD on social media can at times have you feeling like you don't have a solid relationship with Him, and that they have a better relationship. It can have you feeling insecure, but I want to say that all of us have struggled in our relationship with GOD.
There is no one who has had a perfect relationship with GOD. I want to encourage you to feel secure in your relationship with GOD, that way no doubt can creep in. Don't just pray and read your Bible. Talk to GOD like a friend.
If you are hurt, run towards GOD. His arms are open wide for you โ waiting to embrace you with His love. He created you after all, so why would He not love you?
Romans 8:38-39 says that nothing in all creation can separate us from the love GOD has for us. Satan tries to do that everyday, but in his attempts to do so, all he does is enable us to go searching for GODโS love because of our pain, which only puts us in GODโS arms.
There is a relief when you realize that everything you are battling is not nonsensical but spiritual (Ephesians 6:12). You are not always the problem. The devil is. He is the adversary and he is constantly accusing you and persecuting you even if it seems like he isnโt.
You wouldn't be here if it weren't for the Creator. Thank Him and worship Him alone for the time is at hand when the adversary the devil will demand worship!
Satan has deceived the nations. He has falsely convinced people that there isnโt a GOD. That there isnโt a Creator. Well, there is. Heโs name is, โI AM WHO I AM.โ
How are you convinced that creation was a result of some theory? How are you convinced that life is a random coincidence? How are you convinced that there isn't a GOD when faced with truth about the complexities of His creation that nobody else could've have done apart from Him?
GOD dwelled among sinners and didn't sin. Jesus dwelled among sinners and didn't sin. Yes, we are sinners, but that shouldn't stop us from setting ourselves apart for we are not of this world. Be holy. Choose your friends wisely. Don't let them be the reason you go to hell.
Who are you to seek out vengeance for the sins of a person when you yourself are a sinner and the LORD GOD has not exercised His vengeance upon you? GOD doesn't call you towards vengeance, He calls you towards repentance.
God doesn't need to give you a reason for you to obey Him because He is the "LORD Your GOD" and you need to trust Him. He can, however, give you a reason rooted in His goodness โ to keep you away from danger so you don't suffer the consequences of disobedience.
The wages of sin is death, so you need to rebuke sin/death and call upon Jesus who is the antithesis of death. He is the way, the truth, and the LIFE!!!
