I had questions to God and asked him, if he will judge us, them/me...?
Then I was reminded that we who are his, that "I already knew"...?, I was told, that "were as unworthy as unworthy gets, each one equally in God's eyes, and the only way out of that, is Jesus Christ... Those who are his are made as "worthy as worthy" can can get, each one equally in God's eyes, just by association with him (Christ)...
He said "I know, it's difficult to understand..." Then, I said, "Yes, it is Lord... but, I'll take it, I'm tired of feeling as unworthy as unworthy can be, and if you say it's the opposite, then it would be a lack of faith to not believe it and walk in it right...?
I just don't don't want to commit a whole new set of sins on the other side of that paradigm shift... Help me not to do that Lord, if I can think myself worthy somehow...
God Bless!
This is an awesome revelation and testimony.
In agreement, yes, none of us are naturally born "worthy".
In agreement, yes, Trusting, Believing, puts one in the direction, to becoming "worthy".
Once a man has decided, to 'submit' to the Lord...
It IS the Lord, who, with His Power, changes you.
His Power,
makes you "worthy",
keeps you "worthy".
There are NO "sets of SINS", you can commit, to once again become "unworthy".
That is you "listening" to your carnal mind.
Your "carnal mind" is your number one "enemy".
Just as your "canal mind" is an enmity against God.
Rom 8 [
7] ... the carnal mind is enmity against God:
It is your "carnal mind" that is saying, ohh, ohh, you did this wrong, you did that wrong, you, you, you, messed up, you are not "worthy", the Lord is taking notes, and you are not perfect, and you better watch out, the Lord is going to reject you. Worry, worry, heed what I (your mind) is saying to you. Struggle, struggle, ha, ha, let me (your mind), cast doubt, listen to me (your mind), doubt and wonder, worry, worry, worry, 'IF' you are good enough. Nope, I (your mind), say you are not.
Take a page out of Gods playbook. He doesn't listen to your canal mind, nor should you, concerning spiritual matters.
God sought the truth in your Heart, when your truth in your Heart submitted unto Him.
God answered you to your Heart, to forgive you of ALL SIN.
God answered you to your Heart, to change you, MAKE YOU worthy, KEEP YOU worthy, BE forever with you.
God is NOT, in your carnal mind. Thus stop listening to your carnal mind, trying to UNDERMINE, His Greatness within you.
SIN, SIN, SIN, ~ it's all around us, right? Right.
It's IN A MAN, who has the Spirit of God in them, right? WRONG.
But, but, but ~ thoughts come to me (carnal mind)
But, but, but ~ I (carnally minded) did something sinful
But, but, but ~ WHOSE
accounting are you in agreement with?
Yours, the Worlds, OR Gods?
Yours, keeps telling you, you are still, maybe, sometimes, "unworthy".
The World, is eager to tell you, you are still, "unworthy".
But, but, but ~ What has God told you?
You ARE forgiven of ALL sin. You ARE worthy. He IS FOREVER with you.
IS this a "sin pass", that you get to do whatever you want? sin, sin, sin?
No. It is "forgiveness" and "keeping" you forever, FREE from all sin.
It is your living with Gods Power and His Patience. A time period if you will, for you to trust the thoughts in your heart, and gradually, your "carnal mind", will
become subject to the thoughts in your heart. And when your "carnal mind" tries to convince you, you are not worthy,
YOU supersede your own mind, with the Truth of God.
It is basically, you, who now has the Power of God in you, telling your own carnal mind, back off, it is wrong, you are worthy, you are forgiven of all sins, you are in standing WITH God, and nothing can separate you FROM God.
When your hearts thoughts have conquered your minds thoughts, you will have then successfully mastered having a mind like Christ.
All these things, your carnal mind is convincing you, that you continue to commit sin, is a lie.
The Lord is in you forever. He does not, can not, dwell in sin.
When He says ALL of your sins are covered, are forgiven, and you sin no more.
Trust Him, Believe Him.
When He says WHY you Can NEVER again commit sin.
Trust Him, Believe Him.
1 John 3
[
9]
Whosoever is born of God
doth not commit sin; for
his seed remaineth in him: and
he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
IF you ARE, born of God, Gods accounting is; you can not sin, BECAUSE, His Seed is in you forever.
God can not dwell in sin, regardless of what your Carnal mind (which IS against God) and the world (which IS against God) tries to convince you.
Trust God, of how HE accounts you; forgiven, and incapable of ever again sinning.
And just a side note;
IF, you are dwelling on carnal thoughts, saying over and over, you have this sin, and that sin....
WHAT are you dwelling on? Sin.
WHAT are you NOT dwelling on? God
And which do you think God wants you to dwell on?
He forgives ALL of your sin, and thinks NO MORE about it.
Do you think He wants you to become like Him? I say yes.
God Bless,
