Does God walk the tight-rope of statute of limitations…
This is a respose to a brother who wanted to believe what I was saying in this blog but couldn’t get the ends together. I brought it up with God. I told God to forgive me, I forgot that I couldn’t in my best reasonings convince him of how glorious God is and that only you God could open his heart and let understading come in. I felt better, but later at night I thinking about him and God asked me if I had copped out on him, in his hunger to know?
So I prayed to God for a last reasoning on this subject on the souverinity of God on all things as creator and designer of all events. And he sent me message. He brought to my rememberance the parable of the Pharisee and the publican. We know the Pharisee and how he was trying to become right before God, telling him of how obedient he was to God’s commands. It sounds right, but not to God.
Now I want to tell my troubled freind to not fear of how God has created us, fallible, feebel, sinful, wicked and immoral. The publican said do God, “God, forgive me I AM a sinner, the way it pleased you to design me. I’m helpless to change what you God have put in motion in my life. I make no effort to try to impress you with so kind of goodness, I know better. But since I know you are kind and merciful, I have hope you will forgive my make up and help me through this dark night. I have only faith in you God!
And truly that man went on home in a way that pleased God, acknowledging God for everything as the author of good and evil but with our sin because everything God has a holy purpose to bring glory to himself, his name, his heaven, temple and his annoited Son Jesus. May God have all the praise and all the glory. Amen.
