A reminder for
today
Who is a liar but
he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the
Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father:
(but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. Let that therefore
abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have
heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the
Son, and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even
eternal life. (1 John 2:22-25)
We live in weird times. I grew up in world where people went
to church every Sunday and respected other. People did not doubt God and
schools started a day with prayer and scripture. Suddenly that all changed and now
we are not allowed to have schools that starts a day with Jesus, suddenly Jesus
is not allowed in our schools anymore. The moment we accept this is the moment
society falls into destruction. Isn’t it funny how Jesus is wrong, but satan is
right. The laws of Jesus have no meaning but the lawlessness of satan is fine. People
will rather build on lies than stand on the truth. What happened to this world
that God created?
It is simple, when we live a godless life we have no guild
for we can do whatever we want and it is fine. We can lie and steal and destroy.
We can hurt and kill and fornicate and bath in the desires and lusts of a
broken world. We can have same sex relationships and the world will ban those
speaking out against gay marriages. Corruption and wealth makes the person and
the more we have the more important we are. We live for evil and there is no
place for good. We deny God, yet we accept other gods.
John writes a very important message here in verse 22. He says
that those who denies Jesus is nothing other than antichrist. And we have many
of those. He goes on makes it very clear that whoever denies Jesus, does not
have God either. How many people denies Jesus as our saviour and Messiah? John
goes on says that which we have heard and which we know should remain in us
until the end, because this promises eternal life. So, I ask that we do not
accept this world, but instead we should stand up for Jesus and fight for Him. There
are so many that are lost. We just can’t let them perish. We can at least stand
up for Jesus so that they will see our conviction and maybe the Holy Spirit can
change their hearts. Things are going to get much worse, so I ask that you stay
steadfast in your faith and keep your eyes on Jesus.
Lord, I pray that you will open our hearts and eyes so that
we will recognize the lies of satan and reject him from us. Let us stand firm
in our faith and give us the strength to keep fighting no matter how hard it
gets. In Jesus name.
Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
