Abomination is a word of great description, it does
not leave the hearer guessing and it is a word used rather often throughout the
scriptures. Especially under the Law, the First Covenant and then again
throughout the rest of the Old Testament. A word used to depict God’s sentiment
concerning a particular topic. His view on a matter…
I am beginning to understand and echo King Solomon
sentiments as my awareness is deepening concerning the importance of pleasing
God. To have a good standing with the judge is imperative for He is the one
that will determine an individual’s eternal outcome. As the judge He will
adjudicate the sentence, our response to His instruction will be on trial. Of
course it’s the Lord Jesus’ sacrifice that will free the saint from eternal damnation.
However, what we must pay particular attention too, is how we conduct ourselves
with this glorious gracious gift God has given us, the LORD JESUS CHRIST!
The war is fierce, if only God would open our eyes
and show us the unseen just for a second. I believe we would all live totally
different lives but the probability of that happening is highly unlikely; we
have all been called to a walk of faith, a centre piece to God’s script. And
“without faith it is impossible to please God.” This is a crucial part to the
puzzle that must grip our hearts and where the charlatans have twisted the
frail’s understanding on what that truly means. Simple put it’s to learn to apply
the Word of God to our lives. It not about self-indulgence, that’s the lie and
anything else that revolves around that type of emphasis.
Death and then the judgment; life and then the
sentence or life and then the reward. We will all end up in one of those camps.
With eternity fronting our existences. How often do we ever address the truths
behind these facts? Have you ever wondered why the masses shy away from this
very important topic? It is never discussed. Satan and his combatants look to
instil a dearth concerning the topic of eternity, lest some find the answer to
life, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and the only true Messiah. There
is no other way to find favour from the eternal Judge. Whilst the Lord Jesus
walked and talked with the masses some two thousand years ago whilst alive on
planet earth he was ask a question; Thomas
said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know
the way?” (John 14:5) – Here is the critical response
that needs to grip our hearts if we are to eventually find favour from the
Creator and Judge of the universe. Ignore the Lord Jesus’ advice at your own
peril and the cost of eternal doom and gloom; “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No
one comes to the Father except through me.”” (John 14:6)
This life is all about finding a knife sharp enough
to make the cut, choose the wrong knife and sadly the consequence will be
unbearable. Repent, turn to Jesus and find life, without his covering we will
all be bundled into the same sack and eventually cast into the Lake of Fire.
Every effort outside of what the Lord Jesus Christ achieved on behalf of the
repentant sinner when he paid the price for sin and he took on my punishment as
well as the punishment for the sins of the world. Reject his sacrifice on your
behalf and regardless of what you attempt to do from an ethical and moral
perspective it will only ever remain in the sack of abominations doomed for the
Lake of Fire. A very hard pill to swallow if the eyes of your understanding
haven’t been opened to this truth. Society has been so hoodwinked by the
“strawmen” of our lives it pains me so. If only we would all be shocked into
action truly looking out for one another, regardless of the cost, as I can
assure you that the so called pleasures of this life will be of no comparison
to the bliss the Christian will experience in heaven. However until the penny
drops, nothing will ever change in our lives. Our understanding needs to be
awakened, I pray that you would be merciful Father God and give us a deeper
understanding so that we may live different lives and be pleasing to you in
effecting the rescue of those we encounter along the way. It is the goodness of
God along that saves, and yet he has chosen the foolishness of preaching to
bring salvation to the repentant sinner. We cannot remain silent, speak out as
it may just save someone from eternal damnation.
Send this message on to those whom have no yet
understood or turned the corner.
