JOHN 16:9

"THE WORLD'S SIN IS THAT IT REFUSES TO BELIEVE IN ME." SAID JESUS.

ALL OTHER SINS ARE BORN OF THAT ONE ROOT. MANKIND HAS BELIEVED THE SATANIC LIE THAT THEY ARE ABLE ON THEIR OWN TO TRY AND SUCEED AT ATTAINING THEIR OWN SALVATION, COMFORT AND PEACE.

NOTHING COULD BE FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH.

THE MIND OF MAN IS INCAPABLE OF KNOWING OR DISCOVERING ALL THAT THE MIND OF GOD CONTAINS CONCERNING HIS LOVE FOR HUMANITY. FOR, GOD LOVED THE WORLD SO THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON TO THE END THAT ALL WHO BELIEVE IN HIM WILL NOT KNOW ETERNAL DAMNATION, BUT WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE THROUGH HIM.

HUMANITY, ON THE WHOLE HAS BELIEVED THE DEMONIC LIE THAT THEY DO NOT NEED GOD, OR THAT THEY NEED MORE THAN OD HAS PROVIDED TO EXPERIENCE TRUE FLOURISHING AS HUMAN BEINGS.

HUMANITY WAS CREATED TO LIVE BY AND LIVE IN THE LIFE GOD PROVIDED. WE ARE HIS CREATIONS. WE ARE NOT SUFFICIENT IN OURSELVES TO THINK OF AS ANYTHING HAVING COME FROM OURSELVES. OUR SUFFICIENCY IN LIFE COMES TO US IN JESUS CHRIST, OR WE KNOW NOTHING OF IT.

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...

 INFINITELY MORE Ephesians 3:20-21 " Now all glory to God, Who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.   Glory to Him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen." In the Gospel of John, many of His followers turned away because of the covenant commitment He required of those who would follow Him. That covenant declared that what was to happen to Jesus would also happen to them. We, too, must lay our lives down and choose the will and way of God's Kingdom over all else. Those in the crowd knew that in Jerusalem, the Jewish religious leaders were plotting and planning Jesus' destruction. To follow Jesus to that degree required denying self and the thrall of the world and its ways, even to the point of laying one's life down by refusing to deny the Lord and His salvation. Jesus turned to the 12 and asked, " Are you also going to leave?" ( John 6:67-...

 CONVICTION When the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin, He doesn't ask us to make it right. We can never add to what Jesus Christ has already done on the cross to deal with the totality of our sin. The Holy Spirit asks us to accept the truth, turn from sin and turn to the Lord. Then He will make it right. Remember Who our faith depends on from start to finish, that salvation is of the Lord alone. Laying aside every hindering weight and the sin that so easily trips us up (different for everyone), we are to run the race He has given us to run with perseverance, fixing our eyes on Jesus. He is the One upon Whom our faith depends on from start to finish. He will never run out of eyesight any more that a good shepherd would go ahead of the sheep he was leading where they couldn't see to follow. Hebrews 12:1-2 "Surrounded then as we are by a great cloud of witness to the life of faith, let us strip off everything that hinders us, as well as the sin which dogs our feet, and let us r...
