Peter 4:1;4:6 "Therefore since Christ suffered in his body arm
yourself with the same attitude because he who has suffered in his body
is done with sin." "For this is the reason the gospel was preached even
to those who are now dead, so that they might be judged according to man
in regard to the body but live according to God in regard to the
Spirit."
Christ suffered here on Earth just as we do everyday, he underwent all
the daily tribulations and sins we face. However, he never followed
through on any of his temptations. Therefore, he understands our daily
struggles and he will help us if only we seek his advice and look up to
him. Hebrews 2:18 "Because he himself suffered when he was tempted,
he is able to help those who are being tempted."
As sinners we live for the daily pleasures in the world, doing worldly
things such as, gambling, poronography, drugs, alcohol, just to name a
few of the sins we commit daily.
When
God enters our life unsaved individuals look down on us because we are
not indulging in their worldly things; however God takes away all desire
for these things.
These individuals not living for God will have to give an account to him
when they die on how they have lived their daily lives, and God is
keeping a record of what we do. God is there in this life to redeem you
from your sins all you have to do is ask for forgiveness. One way or
another you will have to account to Jesus Christ.
When we accept Jesus into our hearts we are a new creation, as the song
says I am a new man old things have passed away. 2 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation the old has gone,
and the new has come." So we are Christians should set an example
for the unsaved individuals in the world to let them know that they can
gain the peace of God, and become a new creation in Christ if they
repent of their sins.
Jesus welcomes everyone into his arms, and you then become a child of
his. He does not look down at what your sin was; when you accept him
into your life all of your sins are wiped away. If you believe that
Christ died on the cross and arose on the third day then you can be
saved if you ask him into your heart. Acts 3:19 "Repent then and turn
to God so that your sins maybe wiped out."
So it is up to you do you want to keep living a life of sin or find the
peace of God? Where do you want to spend eternity Heaven or Hell? The
choice is yours to make today, all you have to do is to ask Jesus into
your heart as your saviour.
I want the rain, I want the rain,
falling down on me, I need the rain, I need the rain, falling down on me,
it's the former and latter put together, I'm not talking about the weather, It's the Holy Ghost raining down on me!
