 MORE THAN A "FINE-TUNING" IS NEEDED

The prevailing cultural mindset of our day would have you actually believe that all you need in your life is some "fine-tuning" because there's nothing really that broken in you.

It's a well-crafted lie and appeals to a gangrenous pride that has infected humanity since Adam and Eve blamed God for their own rebellious folly and its lasting effect on all of humanity.

Every philosophical system, every religious system, every person when left to their own thought in isolation admits that something is wrong. Things are not what they should be relationally, nationally, emotionally, physically, psychologically, politically, etc.

People, we do not need a "fine-tuning". When something is dead, it doesn't need another coat of makeup to spruce it up. What humanity needs is a new heart, a new life to replace the internal, spiritual death that continues to mar, divide, destroy and deceive. 

What is broken is incapable of fixing itself. It needs help from outside itself. God knows that and has done what is necessary for all humanity to be restored in perfect relationship with the One in Whom Life is found. God has already done what was eternally impossible for us to even contemplate. Jesus Christ took into Himself the sum-total death of the human race brought on by sin and conquered it as evidenced by His Resurrection from the dead. 

We can now receive forgiveness for our true moral guilt, receive new hearts and a new spirit for He will come and live out His life in us by the Holy Spirit.

You don't need tweaking. You need the power of a New Life. Believe what God has done for you. Receive His grace. Become fully human again. There is no other way.

 HE IS RISEN! IT IS FINISHED! After the Israelites had passed through the Red Sea by God opening the way for them to be saved, the whole of Pharoah's army, his horsemen and chariots pursued God's people into the opened way. Once they were all in, the waters flowed back into their place with suddenness and fury. Not one of the enemies survived. All perished in those waters. When Jesus Christ hung on the cross, all that sin contained, the full measure of the rebellion of mankind for all time, all the wickedness that was ever in human hearts were absorbed into the Lamb of God as He died our death, received our just judgement from God for all time, taking all that sin and death contained. In Him, sin and death died once and for all. They were overwhelmed, covered and drowned in the sea of His precious blood, poured out for the sin of the whole world. Not one enemy remained alive, all were stripped of their power to hold us in slavery to sin any longer. All their weapons were confis...

WHAT DO YOU BLESS? It would be an act of utter folly and disaster were I to choose to "bless" what God will not bless. God's wrath is set against anything and anyone that would try and hinder you becoming all He created you to be and to grow in by being united to Him through the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus Christ. There is nothing arbitrary about the Word of God. He is very specific on what will make for life and what will not. Human life only becomes human life when the Holy Spirit becomes Life withing a believer. Being united to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the follower of Jesus becomes a new creation and begins to live Life as God intended. God begins the good work, and He is the One who will bring it to competition. Somethings will NEVER make for life. What God calls sin, missing the mark of what will make for life, is always sin regardless of what culture anywhere and anytime say to the contrary. Sin cannot save, heal, redeem, restore or remake...

  PRAYER Jesus Christ NEVER taught on what we call "unanswered prayer." James wrote that a divided loyalty between trusting the Lord God for life and at the same time relying on the world's systems to get what you want will result in you not getting anything from God you may have prayed about. God will never reinforce the unbelief that flows from divided loyalty. THAT is not unanswered prayer. That is God saying, "No." to your request. God saying, "No." to your requests is not unanswered prayer. It is His grace. His "No" is just what I would want if I knew what He knows. The Lord also answers with, "Not now; not yet." because we are not yet prepared to receive what we think we need. God works in us both to will and to do His good pleasure. If I am praying for something God wants to do in me and the Holy Spirit is working in me preparing me to receive what God has in store, His "Not yet." is NOT unanswered prayer. As we see...
