MY FRIENDS, OH THE GRACE AND MERCY OF OUR RIGHTEOUS JUDGE!!

As we sit in court and listen at our case brought before the judge, we notice, as he listens he doesn’t look down at his notes or fumbles through a stack of papers going over our file, he listens attentively at every word spoken by the prosecutor and the defendant and then he makes a judgement based on the law not on our emotions.

So it is with our Savior, one day soon “we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. Corinthians 5:10 (NIV) My friends, God has herd the accusation against His children who have been His faithful disciple’s, while carrying their cross and witnessing to others.

Allegation and charges of Past sins and abominations. But, as we stand before the judge who is also our defendant, who knows through our faith and endurance that we are Repentant sinner’s because in the presence of the Lord daily, we laid prostrate before Him as we realized what Christ reparation was all about on our behalf.

In addition, as a Child of God we also understand that our only hope for Salvation was through the blood of Christ and the cross. That statement tells His chosen that our faith in what Christ has done for us, gives each of us hope for eternal life.

So now we are justified through our sincere belief in what the cross has done for us as we allow self to die daily through God’s Spirit as we Study the Word of God while standing in the presence of our Savior who Pardons and justifies us as an adopted child of the King.

And once our sincere repentance reaches the courts of heaven our Savior who is our Advocate, goes before the father, for John tells us in 1 john 2:1 (KJV) “My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.” who’s blood made this process possible.

And once before the father, He says, these are my children, “I reprieve them from the condemnation of death, giving them My life insurance policy—eternal life—because I have taken their place and have suffered for their sins. He [and she] is even My beloved sons [and daughters].”

Thus man [and woman], pardoned, and clothed with the beautiful garments of Christ’s righteousness, stands faultless before God…..It is the Father’s prerogative to forgive our transgressions and sins, because Christ has taken upon Himself our guilt and reprieved us, imputing to us His own righteousness. His sacrifice satisfies fully the demands of justice (E.G. White Our High Calling, page 51)

And now we can sing praises to the king and say with full assurance that “Our hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness we dare not trust the sweetest frame but wholly lean in Jesus’ Name.” But my friends, there are still challenges for most of us in allowing self to die and turning our life over to the unknown or just terrified where Christ my lead.

But we must all remember, when Satan places fear within us, “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” 2 Tim. 1:7 (NKJV) And now we must delight greatly in the Lord; for our soul rejoices, as we consecrate our life for the Good Shepherd who died on the cross for our Salvation and life eternal.

So friends stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
