How Will God Respond to Your Sin?
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God?”
Romans 3:23
June 8, 2020
Ponder This
You may be a “righteous” sinner, a “moral” sinner, a “church member” sinner, a “fine up-standing” sinner, or an “educated” sinner; but you are a sinner.
And the Bible says Jesus and Jesus alone is God's answer to man's sin. Without Jesus Christ, nothing can be done for your sin. With Jesus Christ, nothing else needs to be done.
We must confess our sins and be willing to admit we’re a sinner. We must believe Jesus is the only answer for our sin. We must believe He is the Savior.
Dear friend, if today by faith you will admit you're a sinner, then you are well on the road to being saved. If you offer God an alibi, any excuse for sin, you'll never be saved. First John 1:7 says, “… the blood of Jesus ChristHis Son cleanses us from all sin.” And Romans 5:20 says, “…where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.
Practice This
You must “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved...” (Acts 16:31). Confess your sins, repent of them, and believe. Then, “…though your sins be as scarlet, they will be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they will be as wool” (Isaiah 1:18).
FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MINISTRY
Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
