Day2
1 Thessalonians 2:15b-16
They do not please God and are contrary to all men, forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved. In this way they are always piling up their sins, but wrath has come upon them to the extreme.”
1 Thessalonians 2:15-16 MEV
Cross references
Acts 13:50; Genesis 15:16
Piling Up Sins
Religion is a god in itself.
Usually, each religion has a set of rules and regulations to follow. A Do’s and Don'ts list. This inspires judgement from it’s member’s.
We are called into a relationship with Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Our Messiah.
It does not please God when we simply follow a list of rules and judge ourselves according to how faithful we are or others are not.
God loves us.
His love is not based on our behavior.
He loves us because He does. You can not earn His love or lose His love regardless of your behavior.
That is Grace!
Talk to your Savior today.
Talk to Holy Spirit, who lives inside you for your benefit.
Talk to your Heavenly Father.
Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Philippians 2:12
Leave your neighbor’s in God’s hands.
