Good morning! How are we faithing? Believers are held to a higher standing. The world criticizes believers as hypocrites because they goof up all the time. What the world misses is redemption. Believers are not any better than the world they are just aware of sin and are redeemed from sin. By being aware of sin believers try to not sin and as a result they can be perceived as hypocrites when they fail to maintain that standard. Believers who let ego and pride in fall down in the area of seeing sin in others lives and condemning them. We must be diligent in watching our own behavior in this area or we can fall into actually thinking we are "holier than thou". As a redeemed lot we do not fall under judgement of the law of God but that does not mean we can break them. They still are laws to live by. The scriptures are still relevant to how to live today just like in the past. Jesus defined many of the laws and explained the intent of God when he set them up. No one can argue against the laws of God with any compelling reason because any argument against ends up for selfish reasons. Rationalization of breaking laws of God will reap results that befit the infraction. You do not loose your salvation but there will be ramifications of any and all actions eventually. Remember we reap what we sow.
2Co 9:6
But this I say, He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
Gal 6:7-8
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life.
Hos 10:12
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness; break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek Jehovah, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for your Word that teaches. Help us sow without pride. Help us see with you eyes the needs around us. Help us understand your scriptures. We ask you heal the sick on our minds. Show up and show off. Lord we love and adore you even when we sin. Lord our flesh is weak. Heal our flesh. Open our eyes, we want to see Jesus, In Jesus name, amen
