No one is without flaws
Hello fellow steemians, after reading this gospel piece, you'll find it difficult to point an accusing fingers on others, we all are products of mercy and forgiveness!
I feels inspired to write about this today! It concerns the false gospel of condemnation. The gospel that points fingers, accuses, that is self righteous, promotes establishments rather than the Lord, that has raised demi-gods but has failed to recognise the True One.
We all know that story, it's about the woman caught 'red handed' in adultery, not fornication, but adultery! Let's read together John 8:3 "And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst" they proceeded to cite the law; the law rightly condemned her, it called for her to be stoned to death! To remove the filth from the righteous least the righteous be contaminated and err from their righteous way. But righteousness is not an action or a set of rules but a nature, a lifestyle. How could darkness overcome light? Just like Jesus was not overcome by sin, even so should we not.
The scribes and pharisees forgot that even though the Lord is Holy, He is also Just, Loving, and True. The institutions of her day forgot that even though they may not have been caught in their own ungodly act(s), failed to remember that it was grace that can save us and NOT by any singular act that we performe. Unbeknown to them, like her, they (the accusers) were also in need of the savour.
We all fell from the grace of God; therefore, rather than expend energy unearthing the shortcomings of the brethren, remember what the Spirit said "for I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Absolutely nothing!
**HIS WAYS OF JUDGMENT ARE DIFFERENT FROM OURS **
Too often, we wait for God to do something, to act on our behalf, to take a stand for us etc. However, that's not the case; as we would soon learn.
In John 9:3-6 we read "Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay," This man was born blind and the disciples of the Master thought the unborn child could have committed a sin, to be born blind? Really! Also, the same disciples, the disciples of Jesus thought the parents of the boy could commit sins and God would inflict their child with a sickness or disease? Parents sinned, then God inflicts their children with blindness? Who do people think the Lord is 'by the way'? They obviously, do NOT know Him at all.
Jesus' response let's us know that it was NOT the young boy, nor his parents, leaving only one person. You know him, it is the devil. Satan is behind many things that afflict the creation of God. The solution? Pray to God. Yes, and No. Jesus tells us something important, "I must work the works of Him that sent me while it is still day" Two important things jump up at us. The first, we are the ones responsible for creating the change we desire; second, there is a set time for the change to happen; however, prayer sets the tone and offers the spiritual guidance.
