A Time to Choose

Galatians 2:16

So we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might

be accepted by God because of our faith in Christ

and not because we have obeyed the law.  For no

one will ever be saved by obeying the law.  (NLT)

     No human being has the power or ability to stand holy and blameless before the Most High Holy God of Creation.  In order for anyone to stand holy and blameless before the throne of the Living God, they must be holy as God is Holy.  And the only way to be holy in the eyes of God is through the holy covering of our Lord God and Savior, Jesus Christ.  We are born sinners and we will die sinners, and without the blood of Jesus cleansing our sins we will suffer the sinner’s death.  There is no other Way for us to be holy, because our human nature is to sin first and hope for the best.  Without the Holy Spirit dwelling in us, sin controls our lives. We cannot obey the Laws of God because we like to do what we feel like doing.  Many people do not submit to God because of their sin-filled pride.  Pride is why Lucifer, God's most powerful and beautiful angel, rebelled against God and was cast out of Heaven and will end up in the eternal Lake of Fire.  It was the pride of Jewish leaders that led to the murder of the Son of God.  It is your stubborn pride gone unchecked, that will be your ticket to Hell.

      But how blessed we are to live in the Church Age, because our sins have been forgiven and our death penalty canceled.  When you embrace your salvation through the sacrifice of Jesus, you have His perfect blood cleansing your sins, His death as your own, and His robe of righteousness to keep you holy.  God created His Plan for man before the foundation of the earth was laid.  And unlike the waves of the sea and human beings, God does not waver in His plans.  God knows that it is impossible for us to survive without His sovereign power.  He knows how weak in our sin we are and that we need His lifesaving blood.  God has given us fair warning because He wants no one to perish.  But God's Plan is coming to completion and it's time to choose, if you have not already done so.  Don’t wait to make your choice, dear friend—don’t let our Holy and Just God choose for you, because if you do you will not be pleased with the outcome.

                                           A Whisper of Hope

Choose Me, My child…for I Am your only Hope.  You can choose Me or not, but know this; if you choose anything but Me, you die.  Let My death be yours and be resurrected into a new eternal life with Me.

Romans 3:25

We are made right with God when we

believe that Jesus shed His blood,

sacrificing His life for us.  (NLT)

         You must be holy because I, the LORD 

                  your God, am holy.

                    (Leviticus 19:2)
