OUR LIFE AND LIFESTYLE, LIVING HOLY BEFORE GOD PART I

We should live our lives and walk in such a way as not to offend the Holy Ghost. He is our helper and the One that leads us and guides us into all truth. He is our high tower, the One that sees afar off. Our fellowship with Him is very valuable in the christian walk.


On October 1st, 1978 I made Jesus the Lord of my life and accepted the sacrifice He made for me on Calvary. Salvation is the free gift from God that was brought to us by the great price Jesus paid on the cross. In one sense it was free (for us) but very costly for God. He gave His only son as a sacrifice for all mankind.


GOD GAVE FIRST ! ! !


John 3:16-17
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.


THEN WE ACCEPTED WHAT HE HAD DONE FOR US THROUGH JESUS.


Romans 10:9-10
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.


Without the love of God in operation we would all have been condemned to hell! Adam had given up his authority and when that happened he died spiritually. But because God the Father prepared the way for Jesus to come into the world we were then made able through Him (Jesus) to be brought back into right standing with God. We were born again of incorruptible seed. The word of God. We are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus. Brought back into right standing with God. We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.


It is a decision that brings you into the kingdom of God and it is a decision that would put you into a place of not being reconciled unto God anymore. A place of no repentance. But for a person to be in a position to commit this sin would have to be like one listed in Hebrews 6, "once enlightened", "have tasted of the heavenly gift", "made partakers of the Holy Ghost", "have tasted the good word of God", and the "powers of the world to come."


Hebrews 6:4
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.


This is a person that after he was once enlightened by the word of God and came into the kingdom and walked upright before God and then turned and walked away from God and made the decision that he did not want to serve Him any longer and rejected the sacrifice Jesus made, this person would be in a place where repentance would no longer be available to him.


When you accept Jesus as your personal saviour you then come into a relationship with the triune God. Father, Son and Holy Ghost. This brings you into a place where you can fellowship with Him. The vail of the temple was rent and God said He would no longer dwell in a place made with hands. Through the sacrifice of Jesus He could now dwell on the inside of us. We can now come boldly to the throne of God. Just because you have broken fellowship with God through an act of not walking in love or not walking in obedience in a certain area does not mean you have broken your relationship with Him. You are still His son.


TO BE CONTINUED.


Until next time, KEEP THE FAITH !!!!!!!
