Do Not Refuse God

[Christsfreeservant]

“See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven.” (Hebrews 12:25 NASB1995)​

Without going into all the history behind this, this is a warning from God to all of us, especially to us who profess faith in Jesus Christ. We are to see to it that we do not refuse God who is speaking to us through his word, and through the Holy Spirit, and through his servants and witnesses who are obeying him in teaching the truth of the gospel of our salvation and not the lies which are spreading so rapidly, which are teaching a false and diluted and altered gospel message absent of repentance and obedience to God.

And we can read more on this subject in 1 Corinthians 10:1-22. There we read that God was not pleased with most of the Israelites who were with Moses in the wilderness, and so he had them put to death, and they did not get to enter into his eternal rest because of their disobedience, which God regarded as unbelief (see Hebrews 3:1-19; Hebrews 4:1-13). For many of them were involved in idolatry, adultery, sexual immorality, drunkenness, and revelry, in putting Christ to the test and in grumbling against God.

And these things happened, and they were written down for us as examples to us so that we will not crave evil things as they did with the same result. For just as they were put to death for their disobedience and for their sinful rebellion against God, and for their refusal to obey him, and they did not get to enter into God’s eternal rest, the same will happen to us if we do what they did. For the New Testament Scriptures teach that if we walk in sin, and not in obedience to God, that we will not have eternal life with God.

So, if we think that we are in right standing with God, just because we made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ, then we need to think again. For the Scriptures do not support that. They teach that, by faith in Jesus, we must die to sin and walk (in conduct) in obedience to our Lord, in practice, and no longer in sin, or we don’t have salvation from sin. For we don’t know God, we are not in fellowship with God, and we do not have eternal life with God if sin is what we practice and not obedience to our Lord and to his commands.

So, please take this to heart, and please study the Scriptures in their fulness in their correct biblical context, and not out of context. For many liars are spreading lies by teaching the Scriptures out of context and twisting them to say what they do not say, in truth. And they are leading the masses astray and to hell, on the promise of heaven with God, while they pacify them in their sins and they refuse to confront them with the gospel which teaches we must die to sin and obey God if we want to have eternal life with God.

Bombs are bursting. Night is falling.
Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.
Trust Him with your life today.
Make Him your Lord and your Savior.
Turn from your sin. Follow Jesus.
He will forgive you of your sin;
Cleanse your heart, made new within.

Men betraying: Our trust fraying.
On our knees to God we’re praying,
Seeking God to give us answers
That are only found in Him.
God is sovereign over all things.
Nothing from His mind escaping.
He has all things under His command,
And will work all for good.

Jesus Christ is gently calling
You to follow Him in all ways.

Men deceiving: We’re believing
In our Lord, and interceding
For our nation and its people
To obey their God today.
He is our hope for our future.
For our wounds He offers suture.
He is all we need for this life.
Trust Him with your life today.
