God tends to come across as black and white. Honor My commandments or perish in hell.
God created humanity in His image but things went sideways in the Garden of Eden.
God knew this would happen and allowed Satan to corrupt human nature.
The commandments of God are perfect but no one can keep them.
You and I cannot understand the logic of God but we do know that He hates sin and will not tolerate anyone to come near Him who is unclean.
God is motivated by unconditional love so He created a perfect solution for dealing with sin.
God kept this solution hidden for many years as He dealt with sin through animal sacrifices and punished mankind for their abominations.
God made it very clear no one could keep His perfect laws.
Finally, God commanded Jesus, His only son, to be a sacrifice for sin.
This sacrifice is perfect in the eyes of God. The blood of Christ forgives all sin and restores you to God.
The leniency of Christ allows you to live in perfect oneness with God.
God wanted more for you than just forgiveness for sin and restoration to Jesus.
He wanted you to have a method to be filled with the righteousness of God and live with Him forever.
God created the gift of salvation for all who confess with their words and believe in their heart Jesus Christ is Lord.
This decision gives you the ability to live with God forever and He seals you with the Holy Spirit who is the life of Christ.
The Holy Spirit is how you can live a life pleasing to God and do the will of God on earth as it is done in heaven.
We live in troubling times and all have to face the judgments of God. There is no security in the world. Your only hope is to live with Jesus under the authority of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus is the way the truth and the life!
