You may trick man, but you can't pop a sham life off on Almighty God. One day soon you're going to have to enter God's presence and face divine justice, and look God straight in the eye, and answer to Him for what you ARE. *Psalm 44:21* What God knows, that's what counts. You can't hide from God. If your wife or mother knew all about you, you couldn't look them in the eye again. What are you today in the sight of God? Don't dodge the issue, face it. *Romans 2:16* You're going to answer to God for you what you ARE. Never mind what men may think about you. What are you in the sight of God? You're going to give account to God for your thoughts. *Matthew 5:28* As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. At the back of every tragedy in human character is a process of wicked thinking. The only reason any atheist can't see God is because he has a dirty heart. We see God through the lens of our heart.
You are accountable to God not only for what you think, but for what you say. You'll be brought into Judgment for your words. A man's words betray his character. A man's word tattle on his heart's true condition. You talk like you talk, because you are what you are. You have taken God's and Jesus Christ's name in vain. You'll answer for your cruel and unkind words you've said against your neighbor. You'll answer to God someday for what you've said, every idle word. *Matthew 12:36* You can't escape it. You're going to meet your words one day, when you meet God in Judgment. The books of the record of your life will be opened and all the words you have spoken will be there to testify against you. You'll also be judged by your deeds done in the body that God gave you to live in. Your words are thoughts spoken; and your deeds are your thoughts crystallized into action. Yes, you're going to answer to God. You've broken all of God's laws too. *James 2:10* It's a terrible thing to sin against the love of God and a holy God.
You'll have to answer to God, you can't get out of it, you better face it. *Romans 14:12* The wages of sin is death; the soul that sinneth, it shall die. All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. You've sinned, you're going to meet God, and give account to God. What can a man do about this? All the stains of sin are on the pages of your past; all the pages of your tomorrows are clean. Only one Person can hide forever your sins from God's holy eyes. Christ Jesus who knew no sin, was made to be Sin for us, that we might be made the Righteousness of God in Him. *II Corinthians 5:21* The Judge on the throne will be the One against you have sinned. *Ecclesiastes 12:14* But the Lawyer for the guilty sinner is the Son of God, He will plead your case, and take your place. Turn your case over to Jesus, and He will save you today. Jesus Christ never lost a case at the bar of God's Judgment.
Give God your heart, and He will comb the kinks out of your head. Your heart thinking determines what you are. Your thoughts and words reflect what you really are on the inside. You may be trying to sell yourself on something bad. What you are in your heart is what you really are. A man that lies has a lying heart. A man that tells dirty jokes has a dirty heart. Your heart is a fallen heart, and it will lead you astray. Your old deceitful heart will at times try to sell some evil to your head. Your heart tries to sell your head on doing wrong, and then you wind up doing it. Check your heart and its impulses continually with the words of God. You better watch out. You better sit down and go to figuring.
The thing you would do, if you could do it, in the sight of God, you've done it. You can have the right kind of heart if you want it. You need to let Jesus change your selfish, dirty, dishonest heart. You can't do right, unless you are made right. *II Corinthians 5:17* The most important thing is this world is for you to be made Right. Only divine grace can give you a new clean heart, and only then will you look at life right. You will begin to see God when you have a pure heart. If your heart is right, you won't walk down the wrong path. If your heart is pure, you will see God and fear God. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God. Your sin and God's Salvation have to be revealed to you by the Holy Spirit. The devil says, "Make yourself a god, you don't have to listen to God, make something out of yourself. You don't need to take orders from God, deify yourself, be a big shot, leave God out." The devil is the god of this world's system, and he controls the minds and thoughts of the unregenerate. The devil leads men to be their own god.
The Gospel is just as clear as day - Christ Jesus was God manifest in the flesh. He bore your sins in His own body on the Cross. He suffered the wrath of God due to your sins and satisfied divine justice for you. He laid down His life especially for you, and then He rose from dead, and now He is alive forever more. You can't save yourself; you can't earn the forgiveness of sins. Come to Jesus as a poor, lost sinner, with only one plea, that He died to pay for your sins. You have nothing to offer Jesus, simply come to Jesus and accept what He offers sinners freely - the Forgiveness of Sins and Eternal Life. Accept what Jesus did for you on the Cross. Quit your love for sin.
You are not saved by what you do for Jesus. You are only saved by grace through faith in the atoning blood of Jesus Christ. Place all your trust on Christ's Blood Atonement, and He will give you Rest. Come down off your high horse. Don't take any chances with your soul. Only trust Jesus' Precious Blood, and He will save you now. Come to Jesus, put your case in His hands. Get ready for death and judgment today. You better play it safe, trust Jesus' Precious Blood now. Nothing will do for a dying man but the Bible and the Blood of Jesus Christ. The saving grace of God and the atoning blood of Jesus Christ are most important. Trust Jesus Christ right now, you can do it right this minute, don't put Jesus off another day.
