If you look around in this world, none of it makes any sense without Jesus. It’s really all just a facade.–An illusion. It’s just a big show! Everyone is playing their part in the big show.
What is really going on is what is behind what we see and hear in the natural realm. The spirit realm, where angels move and demons move.–Where the unseen is influencing the seen. Because, people are spirits! People are eternal. So, since people are both spirit and natural, the spiritual is endeavoring to influence the natural.
There is literally good and evil forces working in the spiritual realm all the time behind the show that is going on in the natural. If we will see justice, we will see good prevail over evil. Not the other way around.
The Bible teaches that there is a Judge. Who is above all. Who sees all and understands the deep intents of our individual hearts. There is nothing that is hid from Him. And, since He sees and understands all things within our heart and mind, He is uniquely qualified to judge us! And, He does and He will.
The only people who have to fear His judgements are those who are not in Christ. If you fear standing before a righteous God, you know you’re in the wrong. What if, you did not know Jesus, you did much evil on the earth, and then one day, you suddenly found yourself without your earthly body. Maybe it was a heart attack or a sudden car accident. But, now, your earthly body has died.
Suddenly, your connection to the earth has been severed. Where do you stand with God? The Bible teaches that our evil works will go before us, or they will follow us. When our evil works go before us, we have repented and turned away from them, we have confessed Jesus as our Lord and our sins are all forgiven and cleansed in His blood. They are completely forgiven and wiped away by God. All of them! They have gone before we do. They have been dealt with.
So, there is no longer any condemnation in Christ before God! No more condemnation! Jesus has become our justice before God! The person who’s sins follow them is a person who has rejected Jesus. Their sins have not been cleansed in The blood of Jesus. They did not repent. Their names have not been entered into the Book of Life. They do not have Jesus! Who and what they are follows them to the Judgement!
By an act of their will they have rejected the Only Life Of God.–His own eternal life! That life is only through faith in Jesus our Lord. So, no one escapes justice! Either we turn from the old life, become a new creation in Christ, forgiven and accepted, or we stay the same condemned creature as before–without Christ. To be separated from God is a terrible thing! You do not have to be separated from Him and His eternal life. You can have His Kingdom!
I believe God has given you a chance right now. A chance to turn from the direction you have been going. If you will turn to Jesus with your whole heart, He will see and respond. Jesus sees the truth of you. And, if you sincerely call to Him in faith, He will hear. No one is rejected who have come to Him in sincere faith.
He is our Savior. And, it is Jesus who has removed from us the Judgement of God for our sins. God is just. God is fair. No one will accuse Him of unfairness. His judgements are true, pure and righteous. If anyone would argue that He is unfair, God would just pop up on a big video image of the secret moments in life that that person was in error. And, He will prove to all His righteous judgements.
People think God is their enemy. When in fact He is their redemption! People themselves have made God their enemy. And, so that person and God are estranged. It cannot be fixed. Not by us! But, thank God, Jesus came for us in our humble condition. He came for us on a rescue mission from heaven!
Now, God’s judgement does not fall on us who are in Christ. It fell on Jesus instead! We receive this free gift from God by faith in Jesus! By faith, we confess Jesus as our Lord. The Bible says that whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved! Whoever!
You can turn from where you are. You can receive Jesus. Your future can be totally different than before! But, it is up to you to decide you want Jesus! You have to turn your back on what was before! And, give Him your life in total. Confess Jesus as your Lord. Live for Him each day! Learn of Him. Allow Him to guide your life steps.
Though we are living in a world of so much injustice, we all can have Jesus! And, that is worth more than anything! Do you know Jesus?” KF KenFletcher.org
