Okay, so this continues for you the thought that we live in a culture which does not know whom God actually is any longer and if you are the average Christian follower attending a Western Theology Church - you are still lost in your sin and you are Satan's victim ... Yeah, a little rough to say but everywhere I travel in this western culture - I see the same spirit of deception leading those whom should be the faithful further from the truth, further into lie, and no one suspects a thing ...
For years I have slowly been introducing the next generation to the concept that "the church" is sick, the Bible is the cure, but you have to actively seek God's face these days because no one seems to hear His quiet voice any longer. But it is darn hard to seek His face when you do not even know where to look, more than likely are not even a Christian - even though you think you are, and so much sits between you and God that you never are going to find Him. So what to do?
1. Are you a Christian?
Simple question. Have you taken a point in time and humbled yourself before God and confessed your failures, asked for his forgiveness and then DONE something about your new faith?
2. Are you a Murderer?
Simple question. Have you taken human life in ANY manner what-so-ever? There is a very limited area where God sees a difference between murder and killing. Murder is your using force to take someone's life WITHOUT His request. Oh by the way in this age we live in, God is the taker of human life - not you, not your government, not your anything - we are all very guilty here for allowing this culture to have put us this position!
Equally, hatred is just as bad as actually commiting the act and murdering someone!
Repent of these to God, sin by sin area - in great detail before God! He will forgive if your heart is broken in this area. Else just expect Him to ignore you as He does now ....
3. Are you sexually compromised?
If you say no to this one, then you must not be living in this permissive Western Culture where sex is worshiped, the more abundantly, the better!
Make a list - of every single indescretion in this area - for your entire lifetime! Name names, thing on why you allowed yourself to either be used or used someone else.
But, the LUSTS are just as bad as commiting the acts. Add them to your list.
You are now going to be confessing each and everyone of these sins individually to God, by name, by act and asking for His forgiveness, Your forgiveness for each and everyone of those people!
4. Forgive yourself.
If you are like me, if you are like every other person I have had this conversation with - you have to forgive yourself as well. We are our own worse enemies and so in that same prayer with God - ask for forgiveness for yourself as well.
I wish you well, this is not an easy nor fun process.
It will be inconvient to your life.
It will cost you to do this.
Satan will attack.
You will face rejection like no tomorrow.
But set your eyes firmly on Jesus and let God take over in your life.
You can and will make it if you want to. And if you want, if you need someone to talk with and there is no one else, email me or message me on facebook ...
