God's Love Is Not An Excuse For Sin by Nobody: 11:47am On Jun 18, 2011 |
Hi all, its funny how many people want to see GOD as a GOD of LOVE but continue to practice sin and idolatry in their lives. When you tell them that God's wrath is upon such bad behavior, they get angry and accuse you of been legalistic and portraying a wrong image of GOD. The Kind of FALSE GOD and FALSE JESUS that this wicked world wants is one that allows them to continue to wallow in the filth and vileness of sin. Hence, the mere mention of punishment is almost unthinkable to such people, the same ones who cry out against the injustices meted to violated women, starving children, serial killers etc. Yet they deny God the right to punish those who sin against the beauty of his creation. Be not deceived, what you sow is what you will reap, if you reap sin you will surely die, but if you sow unto righteousness you will reap eternal life now and in the future to come. Job 4:8 As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it. 1 Corinthians 6:9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male Love-peddlers nor Same-sex offenders 1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I am writing you that you must not associate with anyone who calls himself a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a slanderer, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat. Colossians 3:5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: intimate immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. I had to write this article because a fellow nairalander mentioned the LOVE of GOD and went on categorize race and homosexuality as unique attributes of mankind. This is plain heresy, RACE is an attribute, Homosexuality is a choice and a perverted one for that matter. Romans 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. Romans 1:24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to intimate impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. THE LOVE OF GOD IS NOT AN EXCUSE TO SIN. "Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness leads you toward repentance?" - Romans 2:4 "Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death." - 2 Corinthians 7:10 "There will be trouble and calamity for everyone who keeps on doing what is evil--for the Jew first and also for the Gentile." - Romans 2:9 |

Galatians 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. |
