In God's Economy: There are No Levels To This

I find that we live in a world of Grays. However God is very black and white.

There is no gray.

We are all sinners (Romans 3:23) and There is only one way to heaven (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). That's it. Plain and simple.

In this world we put levels on wrongdoing. There is simple assault, assault, assault and battery. Then there are degrees; 1st degree, 2nd degree. But in God's economy all sins are equal and they are all punishable by death. No ifs, ands, or butts.

And we are ALL born into sin. Just like we can get certain diseases from our parents, we inherit sin. It has been passed down from generation to generation. Every human being has sin, no one is immune.

Therefore to God it doesn't matter if you have a little sin or a lot of sin (whatever that means) even a speck of sin is too much and can separate you from the fullness of a relationship with God. That is why Jesus came (John 3:16). God sent his son to die so that his perfect sinless blood could be shed and cover your sins so that you would no longer be separated from God.

The sins you do are NOT what send you to hell because we already inherited that death sentence. The decision to not accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is what seals your fate.

There are no levels to this and there are no other ways.

Praise Break: Hymn of Breakthough

I have been in a time of Worship and Praise since early this morning and for the last 3 hours I've been listening to Israel Houghton's Feels Like Home. It has been blessing me. But the very last song was the Hymn of Breakthough. There has been such a shift in my mindset, in my expectancy of God in the last almost 20 days. I'm expecting a breakthough or even breakthrough. The lyrics say, I hear the sound of breakthough, my breakthrough is here. Everything that I need You supply. Every promise of Heaven is mine. But the words that spoke to my spirit, I am healed, I am free God has spoken I agree My breakthrough is here God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. God has spoken, I agree. Let the words follow over you, let in seep to you Soul so that you know, God has a breakthrough for. No matter what you are going through, no matter the sitution. God said, God said your breakthrough is here. Stand i...

Wearing Masks

It's March and if you didn't know its my birthday month. Whenever birthdays come around and you get older you get more introspective. In writing this blog I find that i have been looking at my life a lot and where I've been and how the things I've experienced have affected my today. And although I knew this its become clearer to me over time that I wore a lot of masks. While some people may call it fake I call it the hazard of growing up churched. You learn all the rules and the things to say at church and in front of church folks but then you separate that from the other elements of your day to day life. In my case I grew up feeling invisible. And it was a blessing and a curse. When you are invisible you can observe a lot while being unnoticed and therefore you learn a lot but it is a very lonely place to be at times. We are meant to do life with people but when you are made to feel small or insignificant you then diminish yourself even further. They call i...

2021 is the Year of Birth

In the same way I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born,” says the Lord. “If I cause you the pain, I will not stop you from giving birth to your new nation,” says your God. Isaiah 66:9 We have experienced so much this year but I'm believing that out of the pain of 2020 God will birth a great nation in all of us who continue to push to it birth. Remember, inspite of it all YOU ARE LOVED . The Unlikely Missionary DHW
