Today's world is fraught with uncertainty, as it has been from the time when our first ancestors chose to disobey God. In transgressing the authority of the Holy One, in choosing self-realization and knowledge above obedience and love Adam and Eve established the pattern we've all followed.
The words of scripture ring true: "There is none righteous, no not one." Romans 3:10-12 We go our own way and we reap the consequence of our departure from the realm of peace and blessing that would have been ours had we simply obeyed the admonition of the LORD.
So the world is ensnared in the tangled web of disobedience that we've
woven. We measure the consequence of our sin by degrees, but God sees
it all as transgression of HIS immutable law. When that law is
breached, it is broken--there are no 'big sins' or 'small sins' in His
eyes.
But we have hope because JESUS came to set us free from our bondage to sin. When we receive HIM as our Savior and Lord, we lift our eyes from the quagmire of sin to the glory of hope.
And that BLESSED HOPE will find its ultimate fulfillment when Christ comes again to take us to Himself forever.
May we stand unwavering upon that glorious promise, "...JESUS...SHALL COME AGAIN." Acts 1:11
