Sin

Well I'll somewhat agree with you on that point. I have met a person or two in my life who I believe to actually live as Christ would have them. They are some of the finest people I've ever known.

That being said, they are few and far between the countless people I've met who claim to be christians but live completely opposite except for going to church. These are the ones of which I speak. These are the ones who feel that their ability to regurgitate scripture and their half-hearted repentance is enough to buy them a golden ticket. Maybe it will.

Matt 5:17-18 a little bit closer: "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished."

Yes.

Exactly the excuse I was talking about. The old "we are all sinners" as if we have no self control.

But by whining to Jesus, we can be forgiven for being drunks, child molesters, murderers, thieves, adulterers, and any other evil we can come up with.

I'm not calling you any of these things Grace. Just saying that all of the above have been done by people who call themselves Christians.

it is not WHAT you believe....

it is WHOM you believe in.....

Romans 9:17-18
New Living Translation (NLT)
17 For the Scriptures say that God told Pharaoh, “I have appointed you for the very purpose of displaying my power in you and to spread my fame throughout the earth.”[a] 18 So you see, God chooses to show mercy to some, and he chooses to harden the hearts of others so they refuse to listen.

Indeed. Thank u. God bless.

Yes LORD receive praise and thanksgiving. All glory and Honor belong to God the Father. In Jesus Name.

There is such a thing as sin.

Go tell your bullshit to a child that has been molested by a pedophile.

Well, honey, there is no such thing as right or wrong or good or bad, he just made a poor choice?

Give me a f*cking break.

When you choose to lie, it is a sin.
When you choose to do harm, it is a sin.

These are not bad choices, they are sins.

Yes. Thank you!!

Thank you for posting this.

Jesus Christ is Lord. He died to save us from our sins. We can be forgiven and set free by faith in Jesus.


Psalm 32 <3

Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity,
And in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer. Selah
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah
6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You
In a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters
They shall not come near him.
7 You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
9 Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him.
11 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

This concept of sin, is quite different then you have been led to believe... The people who can truly understand the true purpose of the bible, know EXACTLY what sin is refering to...

You are involved in the biggest pyramid/chain scheme ever devised...

Not only are you making others very rich, you are giving away your spiritual power, the biggest mistake you can make...

Galatians 5:16-26

16 So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves. 17 The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions. 18 But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses.
19 When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, 21 envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.

22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!

24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.

the WORD of GOD is never a mistake.

John 15:13
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

1 Corinthians 13:1-3
"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing."

1 Corinthians 13:4–8a
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails ... "(NIV)


1 Corinthians 13:13
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. "(NIV)


Colossians 3:14
"And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity." (NIV)


1 John 3:16
"This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers." (NIV)


1 John 3:18
"Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth." (NIV)

1 John 4:8
"Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. "(NIV)

1 John 4:18
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. "(NIV)

LOVE CONQUERS ALL.

I tell you these things and warn you to repent of your wicked ways because the Lord Loves you and I Love you and do not want to see you destroyed.

Lower power??? I do not think so.

people today have a very hard time understanding sin and their need for redemption. It is the days that we live in that has absolutely blinded us from what sin actually does to us.

Our consciences have become so seered by all the media of evil, lust and violence.

We are not whining to JESUS. JESUS will take away all of our sin so that we can have a relationship with our FATHER in HEAVEN. When we accept JESUS, we can now enter the presence of GOD based on what JESUS did on the cross for us.

It could be called the GREAT EXCHANGE. JESUS became our sin so we could inherit HIS righteousness.

Once we know JESUS, we can come boldly into the presence of GOD.



"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."

Hebrews 4:16

Yes Lisa. btw i love the picture. :)

Yes... there is a such thing as sin!

1 John 3:4
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for SIN IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW." (speaking of the 10 commandments)

James 4:17
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is SIN.

1 John 2:1
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye SIN NOT. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous

SIN is a CHOICE, but Jesus died for our sins and will forgive us if we honestly repent and turn from them!

When you know who this god really is, it is a HUGE mistake..

Hello Everyone
It brings tears to my eyes of all the people who are being mislead about the truth of Jesus Christ. People make fun of Him and God. Use their names in vain:: ONTO, goddamn, etc.

There will come a day when all the people will know that there is a God, the Father, the Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. For many that realization would occur when the mark of the antichrist is activated. Those who receive the mark will be tormented.

I implore each and every one of you to search within yourselves and pour out your soul to Jesus because He is the only way to the Kingdom of God.

There have been many Churches that teach the wrong message, Churches that might be infiltrated by satanists, and Churches that lost their way.

Don't let that dampen your spirit.Ask Jesus into your life and ask Him to direct you to others that share the true spirit of the Lord before it is to late.

God Bless Everyone

my dear friend....you have it backwards!!

it is a mistake NOT to know who this GOD is...

HE IS YOUR CREATOR!!

There is a phrase that goes like this....

'don't bite the hand that feeds you!'

If there is no such thing as sin, then Jesus died in vain and for NO REASON!! If sin is ok or non-existant, then God needs to take satan and all his evil angels back to heaven because their out right rebellion is excusable! Don't be deceived by these people who try to make you think there's no such thing as sin or no penalty for sin! Jesus died a cruel death to overcome sin and our enemy! And when we choose to sin we crucify Him afresh over and over (Hebrews 6:6)

Don't ever believe that satan can tempt you to sin but God is not powerful enough to give you victory over sin! It's the biggest lie satan loves for us to believe! Whenever you're tempted to sin, if you say a prayer in that instant for power to overcome, I can ASSURE you God will ALWAYS answer that prayer! He's done it for me time and time again! When we sin, it's plain and simple, it's because we WANT to sin, period!

the father in heaven does not create YOUR MUCKUPS. Sin is willful transgression against the laws to provide a balanced society. For most, they have to learn by experience, even if provided with the many laws, why these laws are in place. Sin is personal transgression on purpose of those laws once they are understood. Until then it is error.

Iniquity is the will practice to thwart god development of mind in others and the elites of this world are engaged in that.

Thanks Lisa. This was very uplifting. Brought a tear to my eye.

Amen. I wish i could be able to have my account upgraded so i may have this pic for my avatar.

Yes we are. Yes He loves us very much indeed. God is Love.

What? I was not listening.. YOur cult babbling bull makes my head hurt... Cuz no one can have a good life and after life without believeing in your bull gob.. Whatever.. you must be a leader in your cult.. If your gob is that petty then I would have nothing to do with it anyways.. I would rather enjoy hell or be left on earth then have to deal with its bull shit..

hallelujah. Love this song. Love you too Lisa. Keep up the good work.
