After Being Forgiven.

                                                                    After Being Forgiven.


We Must Leave The Old Life of Sin.


Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are they?  Has no one condemned you?”  “No one, sir.”  Then neither do I condemn you, Jesus declared.  Go now and “Leave your life of sin”.  (John 8:10-11)


After Forgiveness, The New Life is Revealed; “if Repentance has Occurred.”  


Our Daily Nugget

is Jesus letting us know that if we say, we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savor and “Go Back” to a Life of Sin; that we are like a “dog vomit”, it throws bad stuff out of his stomach and goes back to that vomit to consume it again.  It’s like a pig that has been washed of the mud and after it is cleaned, it goes straight to the mud again, wallowing in it.


Of them the proverbs are true:  “A dog returns to its vomit”, and a sow that is washed returns to its wallowing in the mud. (2 Peter 2:22)


If the heart/mind is not changed, the one who confesses Christ as Lord and Savor, “Will Return To A Life of Sin”. 


A Life of Love and a Life of Sin, cannot dwell in a Heart/Mind that refuses to leave their life of sin.  One might say, nobody can live without sinning. Leaving a “life of sin” and “to never ever commit another sinful act” are two different things.  Living a Life of sin is to “Plan To Commit Sin Over and Over Again”.  


To commit a sinful act and to truly be sorrowful and to try to never commit that sinful act again, is not the same.   God is not mocked, He knows when we want to “Live Holy” and when we do not want to “Live Holy”.  Just remember, we all will reap what we sow.  God knows today, what we will think and do in our tomorrows.


A Spirit of “Sincerity and Truth”  

are required for Forgiveness and a Repentant Heart/Mind.


To be Forgiven is to Be Saved From The “Penalty of Sin”; to Live Holy is to Be Saved from the “Power of Sin”; when we are with Jesus, we will be Saved from the “Presence of Sin”.


After Being Forgiven, 

Prepare to Look Like Jesus. The World is Waiting on us to Look Like Jesus.

The Heart/Mind.

                                                                        The Heart/Mind. The Heart/Mind of Christ or the Heart/Mind of Satan?   Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be “likeminded”, “Having the Same Love”, “being of one accord, of one mind”.   “Let nothing be done” through “strife or vainglory”; but in “lowliness of mind (heart) let each esteem other better than themselves”.   Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.   “Let This Mind (Heart) Be In You”, “which was also in Christ Jesus”.   (Philippians 2:2-5) The Heart/Mind of Christ is “A Priceless Blessing”; Available to Us. Our Daily Nugget is Paul letting the Church at Philippi and us know that Kingdom Citizens should be “Of One Mind (Heart/Thinking)”.   Since we have One Lord, One ...

What?

                                                                                 What? “What we Think”, “Guides What we Do”. “Above All”, be Careful “What” You Think because your “Thoughts” control your life.   (Proverbs 4:23) We Can Think, “Anything” we want to Think. “What” We Think “Determines the Parameters of Our Life”. Our Daily Nugget is Solomon, telling us that Through Careful “Thinking”, we can have “The Life We Choose”.   We are God’s Children, our Father has All Power, who can Do All Things.   Through His Only Begotten Son, Jesus, we can do all things through Him.   We can Think Carefully about things that leads to life and things that leads to death.   We, as God’s Children, has been given Great Ability to Control the Spirit World through our “Think...

Real Strength!

                                                                           Real Strength!   “Real Strength” is Humility - “Real Weakness” is Pride.. In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders.   All of you, clothe yourselves with “humility” toward one another, because   “God Opposes the proud” but Shows “Favor” to the Humble”.   “Humble yourselves”, therefore under God’s Mighty Hand, that He may lift you up in due time.   Cast all your anxiety on Hum “Because He Cares For You”. (1 Peter5:5&6) The Humbled Heart/Mind has God Fighting For Them;   “That’s Real Strength”, “That’s God’s Favor”! Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “We All Need To Clothe Ourselves in Humility”, because; God opposes the Proud, and that God “Shows Favor to the ...
