Most people think that if you are sorry for your sins and you confess them to God, then you have certainly repented of your sins. However, according to the Bible, confession is not the same thing as repentance. Neither is sorrow the same thing as repentance!
Most people think that if you have confessed your sins to God, then you have certainly repented of your sins. However, according to the Bible, confession is not the same thing as repentance. Never coming to understand this has led to millions of confessions that are void of repentance.
Someone is trying to deceive you. Are you a Christian? Chances are that you have already been deceived! Most modern Churches ignore these warnings from God in the New Testament.
Where the Son of God was meek before, He will then be majestic; where He was lowly, He will then be lofty; where He was mortal, He will then be immortal; where He was weak, He will then be all powerful; and where He was criminalized and crucified before, He will then be an all-conquering King!
Without question, Jesus Christ is the Lord! The only question is if Jesus Christ is your Lord. Or are you the lord over your own life? Thatâs the point of the question in Luke 6:46.
âI was born this way!â Iâm sure youâve heard it. Or maybe youâve heard something like, âItâs in my blood!â or âItâs in my genes!â. As for sexual orientation, homosexuals really believe that they have been born that way. Nevertheless, Jesus Christ said: âYOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN." - John 3:7
âThey profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.â - Titus 1:16
Drunkenness numbs the conscience. It alters the state of mind. It distorts sound judgment. It steals the heart (Hos. 4:11). It silences conviction and breaks the moral compass of the people. It emboldens sinners to feel no shame and have no guilt as they fearlessly rebel against God!
Have you ever told a lie? Do you always speak the truth? Or, like most people, do you tell lies when it is to your advantage? After weighing the consequences of such actions, you wouldnât think lying is advantageous for yourself or anyone else. There is no such thing as a harmless white lie!
âThou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.â - Exodus 20:17
You may not be deemed a murderer when judged by secular standards, but are you an angry person? Most people dismiss this kind of behavior thinking that itâs no big deal, while adamantly condemning the sin of murder.
Do you like to surround yourself with good people? Modern society teaches us that goodness comes with age and maturity. Nevertheless, God says the exact opposite. âThere is none that doeth good, no, not one.â â Rom. 3:12
Hypocrites are actors. They claim to be personally free from sin, while boldly offering this liberty to others, even though they are secretly in bondage to sin (2 Pet. 2:19).
Have you ever had sex outside of marriage? Maybe not. Do you commit sexual acts of any kind outside of marriage? Sensual contact with the opposite sex is common these days. Whether it be a crush, or a more serious relationship with a boyfriend or a girlfriend, people donât think itâs a bad sin.
Have you ever murdered anyone? Perhaps not. Most people know that this is a bad sin. However, what they donât know is that God will judge hatred as murder. Have you ever hated anyone? (Have you ever told anyone you hated them?) This is a more common sin. Do you hate anyone?
Have you ever committed adultery? Maybe not. Even if you havenât, your friends and acquaintances likely have committed adultery. Everyone needs to know about this dangerous and deadly sin! Marriage is a sacred bond that was legally authored by God, and therefore it is justly protected by Heaven.
