Sin and Grace

-

What is Sin?
The quality of sin is an act against the grace of God. It emphsizes that sin is never an individual act, but it is also and always a soical matter.

Grace is the expression of God's will to be with and for humankind in a community in which human is both for God and for his neighbor. 

He who love God cannot hate his neighbor; and he who hates his neighbor cannot love God 1John 2,3. 

Sin is the rejection of this gracious divine will to the community, therefore, it is not an individualistic act.

Do we love God? Do we Love our neighbors who are different from you?  The  answers should always be Yes!  1John 4:16 God is Love

The Bride-Wife-The Church of Jesus The Christ

-
Image
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.  In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.  After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—  for we are members of his body.   “ For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. ” This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.  However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. (Ephesians 5:25-33NIV) God is Love and Jesus is Lord in the Heaven and on Earth forever.

"Caring" The Love of God For Animals And People

My prayers for you today from A Wise King Solomon about caring  "The godly (man) care for their animals, but the wicked are always cruel" Proverbs 12:10 NLT Jesus said "...I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee". Hebrews 13:5 From Jesus Christ words  “That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing?   Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?   “And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing,   yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are.   And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thr...

COUNTERFEIT

But God’s truth stands firm like a foundation stone with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and “All who belong to the Lord must turn away from evil.” 2Timothy 2:19 NLT Some things will never change.  One of them is the solidity of the truth of God's Word.  It matters not who tries to distort and malign it;  its foundation is unshakable.  One of the reasons I am confident in the Word is that God's Word is not discerned by the head, but by the heart of man.  The hearts of men and women of God cannot be tampered with.  Something else that always remains the same is the truth that God is very clear about those who belong to Him.  He is not confused at all.  Who are they?  They are the ones who claim to be His by turning away from all wickedness, with godly sorrow and genuine repentance.   Any mother who has given birth and seen her baby for the first time will from then on recognize as a fraud and sub...

Blood Shed Pollutes The Land

The first murderer (killer of human being) was Cain against his brother Able- in the beginning  "Thou shalt not kill. Exodus 20:13 KJV Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don’t have eternal life within them. 1John 3:15 NLT And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.  And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.   And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.   And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:  But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?  If...
