If not then what was it? John warns' us If anyone says “I love God” yet hates his brother he is a liar For “Pretty anyone who' does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love But good” God whom he has not seen And he good has given us this command: Whoevaccording to what standard? Your own1 your er loves God must also love his friend’s your family's? How well brother (1 John 4: ) I suspect that if I was to visit you are you doing if you were measured at work or at home I would leave to Bible's standards? the according with a very favorable Opinion But it It is likely that you may find yourself coming up a bit short is not my opinion that matters it does not matter if your life looks Back to our example of Logan good on paper if it is not right with City traffic has it ever caused you God Now I am not saying that my to be frustrated or angry with anothlife is free from sin either but I give er driver? Do you believe that your was one? thanks that even though I may a God good Dependresponse not look that good on paper that I ing on our sensitivity and awareness ' have been declared to be righteous we are likely to realize that it not also was sin' not but a only good by God through Christ: But how can my frustration with God made him who had no sin to traffic lights and other drivers be be sin for us so that in him we might become the righteousness of thought of as a sin? The issue is not God (2 Corinthians 5: 21) what we may think but what God 2(1-21- Maybe you are familiar with other absolute statements made in Scripture like our call to be “holy as he is holy” How well are you doing?' Pretty well you say? What do you say about James’ warning? For whoever keeps tire whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it (James 2:10) The context of this verse has to do with showing favoritism between the wealthy and the poor not normally one of our top sins It doesn’t matter how great or small our sin is if we have ever sinned we are then now a sinner I find that in life like traffic solutions that under close examination we do not look so good and we are left pointing to the meaningless charts trying to explain how good we are God wants us to have more than the appearance of righteousness he longs for us to be the righteousness of God Eldon Paterson is pastor of the Cache Valley Bible Fellowship - ' |
