Keeping Secrets?

 

Welcome to the Article about secretsMany people live by their secrets.  We will discuss how some people look good on the outside because they hide their true selves from the sight of others, thinking their secrets will never be revealed. 

 

GOD will judge men's secrets through JESUS CHRIST.
Romans 2:16


This Scripture clearly designates the differences between the following people:
  1. The one who lives by grace.

  2. The one who lives by legalism.

The one who lives by the grace of GOD relies upon the finished work of JESUS CHRIST on the cross.  Knowing that their sins have been completely forgiven through JESUS CHRIST, they hunger for a daily relationship with HIM

The one who lives by keeping the Laws of Moses relies upon their own efforts to be righteous.  Always worried that they will never earn GOD'S favour, they attempt to keep a particular set of rules.  Such rule keeping prevents a hunger for a daily relationship with HIM.  No matter how much effort they put into making themselves appear right before GOD, their secrets will one day be judged through JESUS CHRIST.

As a Youth attending Church I remember being told by a Pastor,  "If you are bowling when the LORD returns for HIS Church, you will be LEFT BEHIND!"  One particular Church banned it's members from watching television.  An Elder took his television and hid it in his closest, pulled it out each day for an hour.  A week later a member in that Church stood to prophecy; "You say you only watch the six o-clock news, but I know you are watching 'I Love Lucy!

The one living by grace knows just how blessed [happy, fortunate, to be envied - AMP] they are to be unconditionally loved by GOD.  They have come to the truth that HIS love and acceptance of them is not based on their win /loss record or personal holiness, but a matter of GOD'S personal choice to love them unconditionally.

The one living by keeping the Laws of Moses is [unhappy, unfortunate, not to be envied - AMP] because it is impossible for them to ever please GOD.   'For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of GOD--not by works, so that no-one can boast."  Ephesians 2:8,9  

 

Live by grace - Have Eternal Life!
Your
secrets have already been judged through JESUS CHRIST
and you have been declared forgiven in HIM!

 - OR - 

Live by Law - Miss Eternal Life!
Your
secrets have yet to be judged through JESUS CHRIST
when judged,  you will not be declared forgiven in HIM!

If you find that you are living your life as a legalist, it is not too late to repent and accept the grace of GOD.  It is never about what you have done for HIM, but totally about what HE has done for you.  Give up trying to earn HIS favour and rest in HIS grace.  If this describes you, please click on the JESUS Is Calling banner now.
