Blaming God leads to SIN

Sarai of old blamed God for not fulfilling His promise in time according to her, yet God's timing is not according to human standards. Genesis 6:2 gives the lamentation of the woman who is doubting God and the solution she gave but only to regret it later.

 

The temptation to reason on your own and judge that God is either slow to action, He does not care enough to action accordingly or He is contradicting himself is not unique to atheists and non Christians, neither is it new. Many people blame God for their situations and many are lamenting why they did because they are in hell fire for judging God.

 

God is not answerable to anyone, meaning anyone, even the devil. He is God and He does what He wants at any time. He never consults with anyone whenever He wants to do something. He is not a respecter of man. Why should God get permission from a mortal man (Genesis 6:3).

Marry a divorcee and you commit adultery - SIN!

 

Condition for marriage vary and one has been discussed in an earlier page where the Bible talks of being unequally yoked with unbelievers. In this article I want to address the issue of marrying someone who has been in a wedlock before.

I have heard pastors say its okay to remarry when you have divorced someone. The condition of the previous partner having passed on is now ignored. However, The Bible has not changes and it says, ‘ ... anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery’ Matthew 5:32. General and obvious knowledge is that no one commits adultery individually, its takes two to commit this sin. If one is committing adultery, then the other should be doing the same. For any sin that is committed collectively, all the involved are in sin. Consider corruption for example, both the giver and the recipient are corrupt.

Note that anyone whose partner has passed on is free to marry anyone who is in the same situation or anyone who is not a divorce whose partner is still alive. Not until the partner is late that the living can start looking around.



It therefore is a must that you study the life of the person you want to marry before you commit. The sin applies whether you did it knowingly or unknowingly but at any time you come to know about the condition of your partner, you must make the right move. If it calls for nullifying your marriage, do so for the sake of saving your life from hell. I know this might come to you as a shock if you are in a marriage like this one.

Note that nothing of my own have I said but the Bible does.

　


How then do you pull out?

First and foremost, pray to God for direction. If you are true to yourself and to God, He will not allow you to stay in such a relationship, no matter the number of years you have been together. You can repent but once you do, you must not stay in sin. Whenever you repent, you mean that you will make every effort not to commit that particular sin again.

God will never compromise His standard for anyone. Don’t you therefore deceive yourself and think that God understands your situation and therefore you have to do nothing about your situation.

I recommend that you hear from God and not the your pastor because He might wrongly advise you, making you comfortable in sin. That pastor of yours does not love you when he fails to refer you to the unchanging word of God.

 

Think of a woman in a bad way, you have Sinned!

You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery'. But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery in his heart' Matthew 5: 27 and 28. This verse is not only applicable to males but to woman as well. Woman also fall for the sin of looking at man lustfully and by so doing they also have fallen for the sin of adultery in their hearts.

How terrible it is that woman now dress immodestly, they wear revealing clothes and claim it is their right to dress likewise. Too bad this happens even in church. Apparently the world protects the woman that goes to town on a mini skirt, skin top, cleavage revealing tops, see through tops, and allow them to stroll in town on a bikini. So many man have adultery written under their name because of woman that dress anyhow. Television, print media and shows make adverts with woman that are immodestly dressed. This makes it very tough for man to avoid the sin of adultery in the standard Jesus puts in the new testament.

 

 

The message of Christ today goes to man not to look at a woman to lust after her. The same message goes to woman not to lure man to last after them. Watch therefore that you don't cause your brother to sin.

 

Evil thoughts causes God to action and therefore it is SIN!

Evil thoughts are noticed by God. Don't you ever think it all stops with you and those filthy thoughts. Mans thoughts were evil and God decided to destroy the world in the time of Noah. The same God is He even today, He never changes. What used to make Him take action still does even today.

 

The book of Genesis 6 records very strong sentiments about God's feeling about people of that time. In verse 6 God declares that He was sorry why He made man. Each of those thoughts that you nurture in your mind makes Him regret why He made you.

 

Thoughts therefore will be judged. Both believers and unbelievers will give an account, and the Lord will judge the decisions he made—including those concerning issues of conscience. The Judgment Seat of Christ will reveal hidden things that were in the mind of everyone while they were in flesh. It is true that you can be condemned by God to hell just by your thoughts but not having practically committed the sin.

 

Your thought determine the decision God will take about you. Do you want Him to take your most desired decisions for you? Make Him part of your thoughts so that you think like He thinks, do what He wants for you to do and He will give you the desires of your heart.

 

Ommiting the instruction to Repent is Sin!

One sin of omission that the world will have to give an account for if they miss heaven (Matthew 4:17). For those that yielded to the call will find this time as time of victory. Jesus gave his reasons why people should repent, even though that reason has not manifested even today but it is still valid, 'the kingdom of God is at hand'. God has really given the world enough time to respond to this call. This in itself confirms the importance of responding to this call.

 

Everybody is implicated about the kingdom of God being at hand. Nobody will escape when the time comes. The dead and the living will have to account on what they did about the call to repentance. It will be sad because at this time there will be no mercy, non compliant people will be rejected. Such rejection will be eternal. People will be separated from God eternally in hell.

 

 

I implore you to do something about this call.

 

 

 

 

Marrying a lovely but non-Christian person is sin!

 

Whenever God instructs, everybody must listen. Before I get to the obvious Bible verse on being equally yoked with none believers, I want to reference the book of Judges 16, where Solomon fell for a foreign national, a Philistine. This story is common and well known yet it details consequences of being yokes with none believers. Similarly, the none believer might have greater influence on you and you might loose your faith in Christ.

 

Coming back to 2 Corinthians 6:14 , 'Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?' Verse 15 says, 'And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?'

 

This is a commandment that comes straight from the Word of God. No part of the Bible is not from His mouth, therefore, all that the Bible is, is the word of God. The Bible does not contain the Word of God but it is the Word of God.

 

Now the tendency is for people to think of the relationship of marriage when referencing this verse yet being yoked goes beyond that. Did you know that you can be equally yoked in business, professional partnerships, projects and many more. Everything that you do that ties you to an unbeliever that will affect your walk with Christ is forbidden. God has said that He will dwell in believers and walk among them. He shall be our God and we should be His people (verse 16).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Worshiping man made goddesses is SIN!

I have to remain relevant and state goddesses and non-Christian gods to be idols. As long as it is visible to the natural eye, it is an idol, even if its marry. Idols are not to be worship, praised or honoured for they are not equal to God in any way. God is jealous when people worship idols. Jesus expresses this to the devil himself. Matthew 4: 10 says, '...you shall worship the Lord your God, and only Him shall you serve'. Deuteronomy 6:13 says, 'you shall fear the Lord your God and serve Him, ...'.

If we comprehended how God feels when we worship that man made idol, the unknown imaginary idol and convince ourselves that it is a godly worship, we wouldn't even think about it. God gets deeply hurt when you kneel down in front of that goddess. God in His mighty love is calling people from all walks of life to stop worshiping idols and get through to Him through the Lord Jesus Christ in prayer.

 

If you have no idea how you can connect with God the right way, the starting point is saying the repentance prayer. You may say the following:

 

God I acknowledge that I have not been aware that I hurt you by worshiping this idol that I thought is you. Please forgive me of my sins and give me a new beginning of righteousness, holiness and truth. I don't have the power to do right on my own but I rely on your son Jesus Christ to help me. I request your trinity to dwell in me and guide me along the way that I want to start on today. Thank you for sending Jesus Christ to die for my sins so that I can be saved and qualify to enter heaven through Him. Amen!

Tempting God to prove Him in your situation is Sin!

God is not answerable to any person, neither a king, a pastor or whoever. As a church leader or pastor, you watch yourself not to encourage people to proof the existence of God by tempting Him. It is not strange today to hear a national sermon encouraging citizens to tempt God or rather challenging God as if He were not real nor the creator.

 

Jesus warns, '...you shall not tempt the LORD your God' Matthew 4:7. Don't therefore put yourself in risk for any reason and brag that God is your protector. You might not get the protection you claim because you are putting God at a test. Shun from doing this because its not biblical.
