It's NOT God's fault

Hey guys. This post is a bit different, but much needed. I saw a comment on YouTube saying that it's Gods fault there is sin in the world. Let me just say, that is NOT true! In no way, shape or form Is it God's fault there is sin in world.

Many arguments are made saying that it's Gods fault there is sin in the world because he knows everything and created everything. But that means He knew we were going to sin, not that He chose that for us. When God created us, He gave us the power of choice. We got to make descions in our lives and not just be aimless robots with everything programmed into us. God wanted us to choose to love Him and to choose to obey HIm and not just have it be programmed into us as if we were drones.

Since God gave us the freedom of choice, we could then choose to sin. Humans got greedy, we wanted to control everything and we thought we knew what was right. When Adam and Eve sinned, sin entered the world. Why? Because a human sinned! It's our fault. The Bible says that ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God! Everyone is a sinner.

What exactly is sin, you might ask. The dictionary says It's " a transgression of divine law".Basically, it's anything we do that goes against what God has told us to do. Sin can range from disobeying your parents or lieing to murdering or adultery. The punishment for sin is death. And not just earthly death, but spiritual death. We deserve to go to Hell. God is Holy and can not have sin. But God loved us so much that he sent his Son to die in our place so that we could live. Jesus Christ, the perfect Son of God, died on that cross so you could live! But the best part is, He rose from the dead three days later, conquering death!

Does that make you feel something? Think about it this way. Before Jesus died, we were God's enemies. But He sent His Son to die for for His enemies so they could live. That would be like an American giving up their life so a terrorist could live.

So, what do you do with this info? God wants you to be a part of His family and to have a relationship with you. He has given you the FREE gift of salvation and all you have to do is take it. You can be saved from death and an eternity away from God. If you believe that you are a sinner and that Jesus Christ came to earth, died in your place and rose again from the grave three days later you can be saved! Pray to God, ask for forgiveness for your sins, and ask Him to save you. He hears prayers and He'll hear yours.

Gods not slow

Hey guys. Do you ever think that God is slow? Well, here is an old article I wrote explaining how He knows the perfect timing:


You probably all know about the Rapture. Its when Christ comes back for his own. A lot of people are trying to figure out when the Rapture is gonna happen. I want to tell you now, that if you came to this blog, hoping to get the date, well I don't have it, no one does.

But a lot of people want to know what is taking God so long? Jesus is pretty slow for coming back to get the Christians, right? Wrong!! God is not slow, merely patient. God is giving the unsaved more time to accept the gift of salvation, and the Christians more opportunities to reach the unsaved. God is not slow!

Love

Son of Perdition

Only two people in the Bible are referred to as the Son of Perdition:Judas Iscariot and antichrist. Both of these men were indwelt with Satan himself. Judas Iscariot is the disciple that betrayed Jesus. After turning Jesus in, he hung himself. Antichrist's story is much longer though. He did much evil without Satan inside of him, but after he rises from the dead at the halfway point of the Tribulation and being insanely with Satan, there will truly be a new meaning to the word "antichrist". Antichrist will enforce a mark that  every man must bear in order to buy and sell anything. The punishment for not bearing the Mark is death. Though getting this mark, seemingly good at first, looks lime it will save you from death, it will actually do the opposite. By taking this mark, your eternity is thereby sealed to none other than Hell.
