What Grace is NOT

Grace does not make sin acceptable. Sin is deadly no matter who commits it. The Soul that sins shall die, no matter who commits it. Let everyone who names the name of Christ, DEPART from iniquity.

I was praying for a "christian" man. I told the Lord that there is something wrong with him. I did not know what it was, but definitely something is wrong with the man. Then it came to me. Pornography.

Now this man counseled with a Pastor and was helped a lot, he says, but this Pastor follows false teachers.  I am afraid that this pastor made him feel safe in his sin.

God is not willing that anyone perish but that all come to REPENTANCE.

Now I am quite acquainted with the weakness of the flesh and its power over people. Jesus our Lord is an expert on this because He knows all men and knows what is in them.

In order to Repent, you must be ready to Repent. Are you sure? If you still love your sin and don't  want to give it ALL up, then you do not want to Repent.

But if you mean business with God and realize that this pet sin will take you into Hell, and you desperately want to be set free, there is good news: Jesus Christ.

Make Jesus your Lord as best you know at this moment, and ask God to make it  real. You are turning from sin to Jesus. Next begin to let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly. That means you read God's holy Word every single day. Talk to Jesus about everything.  Everything.  Ask questions; He will answer in His own way.  You are justified by faith in Jesus Christ. Now the Just shall live by faith on the Narrow Road that is very difficult and very narrow to our flesh.  But now you are yoked up with Jesus. He will be with you on this road. He will guide you, warn you, and be  your all knowing caretaker.

Now the devil will not like this at all and will try to tempt you off the narrow road and get you back on the wide road to Hell. He'll try to sell you appealing merchandise, to snag you.

If you slip, get back up and confess this to Jesus. 1 John 1:7-2:2, and keep following Jesus

As you walk with God, He will put a new heart into you that hates sin. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit because there are churches and ministers who secretly serve another spirit and not the Holy Spirit. They are actually serving the devil, and they will make you feel comfortable in your sin. Get away from them. The only safety eternally, is to stay abiding in Jesus and confessing any deviation as we become aware of it. We are in a warfare. They that live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution from one level to another.

Pray: Lord give me eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart that understands. Amen. We must stay loyal to Jesus all our lives, and staying in His Word puts the right thoughts and attitudes in our minds. Be patient when the Lord perfects you when it hurts. It is for His glory and our good. Remember we came to Jesus as undone sinners. He is not going to leave us like that. The whole process of Sanctification is God changing us so that we will be holy when we enter His presence. Thank God for the blood of  Jesus.The blood makes it all possible. Stay loyal.
