ArchivedRelationship between a Holy God and sinnersPeace Lady Fatima, I respect your reply but please read all my post. Holiness is only one part of God's character and remember, God doesn't just act holy.. He is utter Holiness. We have already discussed that sin cannot stand in the presence of God. Sin cannot exist in the presence of God, so how will you stand before your God in your sin on Judgement Day? I showed you how even Isaiah, the great prophet took one look at the holiness of God and moaned "woe is me.." Moses was warned that no man could look at God and live. Your sin may not harm God's Holiness, but God's Holiness makes you totally unfit for His presence. We would both agree on this one.. but with one difference. The bible says that the soul that sins shall surely die. The Bible says that on judgement day we all must give an account for our deeds good and bad. I come to God in repentance and with faith that he has dealt completely and totally with my sin. You come to God on Judgement Day knowing that your good deeds might not wipe out your bad deeds. I come to God on Judgement Day in the Name of Jesus Christ, whom the bible says is the only way to the Father and in His grace alone I stand. You come to God on your own merits and with no assurance of salvation. The Bible teaches me that that separation, the condemnation my sin brings on me, is no longer there.. "there is now NO condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus". May you know the full assurance that when you stand before the God you obviously love so much, you can have that same assurance based on the knowledge that there is no longer just the need to hope that your good deeds will make you accepatable.. when God Himself says that they are like filthy rags next to the Holiness of God... but that you might come to Him with Jesus as your saviour and therefore no need to wonder about your eternal destiny. It's nothing of you and it's all from God. Hallelujah!! |
