Great morning! How are we faithing? When the realization hits you that you and your sinful nature is between you and God, not between your neighbor or the Christian down the street as a comparison, it is then you are able to look honestly and repent which in turn is the acceptance of the grace offered by the sacrifice Jesus made on our behalf. You've said it, I've said it; " I ain't as bad as so and so" or "if that person is an example of a Christian, no thanks". How "they" act is between them and God just like how you act is between you and God and any comparison or holding a gauge up to see how much gooder you are than others is ridiculous simply because you ain't them. They fall short just like you and me. They may struggle with stuff you don't and visa versa. What does the Word say? "All have fallen short" so don't look at your or their failings but look at the grace of God through Jesus the messiah because without that, we all fall.
Eph 1:17-19
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power
Remember Janet Shaw...remember Art Clay...
