Nr. 50:
Your sin will find and "reward" you!
4M 32:23
But if you do not, when you sin against the Lord, and ye shall know that their sin will find you.
2Sam 12:5-7
5 Then David was mighty angry with the man, and he said to Nathan, As the LORD lives, the man who has done this shall die, 6, and the lamb will he pay fourfold, because he did this and did not show mercy. 7 Then Nathan said to David: You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel: I anointed you king over Israel, and delivered you out of Saul's hand.
This is from my commentaries Galatians 6 7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth, he shall also reap.
This is to reap applies to all people at all times. Both before, during and after the law. It is called also the law of Moses that your sin will find you. No one can go with hidden sins in life and heart, all will reap the before or since.
8 He that soweth to his sinful nature will reap destruction of it: he that soweth to the Spirit will reap eternal life by the Spirit.
Hebrews 10, 26 Sins we willfully after we have learned the truth, then there is no longer any sacrifice for sins. (See: 2 Peter 2:20, Matthew 12:45)
It is clearly evident in the NT that this is an ongoing conflict as long as we are still in nature (flesh), but that life in the Spirit is our state united in God. The flesh is real even after salvation, and many feel the contradiction between the law of the flesh and the Spirit to a greater or lesser degree. By prayer, fasting, faith and struggle you go from life in the wild - by putting dead flesh - to the life of Jesus and the Spirit. Here comes the Holy Spirit's help we built up in faith, gifts and power as we grow and mature in faith. You all must surrender completely to Jesus and put all the burdens on Him (Romans 8:26, 8:34, 1 John 2:1, Matthew 11:28-30). Here we must all be salt and light, help and guide each other in love.
9 Let us not become weary in doing good. When the time comes, we shall reap, only we do not give up.
Showing your kindness, you will reap goodness. One day you can give, another day it is you who needs to get. Then you'll have plenty left if you have sown plenty.
But management also applies to my CHRONO time. Have I managed my time right when it comes to seeking God, I have found the right balance between work and rest, involvement in and outside the home, involvement in church? God has something he wants to teach us here. But then we must begin with him.
We never read in the Bible that Jesus was in a hurry. He had time for everyone even though he had much to do. But then he did just that his heavenly father had made. And it seems that knowing what it was, he was in the quiet morning moments when he was alone with his heavenly father.
10 So let us do good to all as long as there is time, and most of those who are our brothers and sisters in the faith.
Note the use of language: our brothers and sisters in the faith. It is quite natural in a family that is a very special relationship with the mother and father and who I am married. It is also quite natural that I feel a greater closeness to a brother and sister than to other people. If I close my eyes, I can NOK say that I should love everyone equally, that I should take more account of my brother than to a beggar on the rubbish heap in Bangkok. But that's not how life is. I do not forget the beggar on the rubbish heap in Bangkok because of my sister has a greater place in my heart. Moreover, I would be torn completely apart if all the world's people should have as much space in my wallet as my children. Healthy LOGIK and healthy human thinking are also spiritually (end of quote).
It is spiritual as natural laws. Although Pastor Aage Åleskjær on OKS learn that this does not apply to us in the new covenant, he said the only GT learn that your sin will find you, then it is to believe in a lie to believe in such a savage! We must all give account for our sins, sooner or later.
1. Tim.5.24: Some people's sins are visible to everyone and goes in front of them to the verdict, in others they follow after. 25 Likewise also the good works visible, and they are not, they will come to light.
I have attacked Pastor January Hanvold, but his sins are only the tip of an iceberg of sins accepted and acceptable in today's Christian Norway. His sin is visible to all, and no one responds to the adulterer. He has even said that he is guilty of two failed marriages and that he also condemns those who do not agree that he is re-married. This is an abnormal, sick and dangerous man who is strongly influenced by the spiritual powers and an unruly flesh. Are we not clean with God, we are like rusty pipes where the water where it's going to have rust with them and we are dangerous to others. How easy is it not for anything of sham and deception in the church of God to come here in Norway. But his sin will sooner or later find him and beat him and his activities over when Vision Norway is and will remain a deception and seduction.
1. Pet. 4. 17 For it is now time that the sentence should begin with the house of God, but it begins with us, what will be the end for those who do not want to believe the gospel of God? 18 And it is just difficult saved, where shall it be of the wicked and the sinner?
We who have become children of God through faith in Jesus, will be difficult saved. And the sentence should begin with the church of God, why do not realize that there is so much sin and disobedience in the church of God that Jesus does not come as he will?
It is important to understand that if Ananias and Sapphira were alive today they could with their generosity and the generosity gone into any church and been faithful supporters of Vision Norway. But among the early Christians fell they both died for (Acts 5). When Satan rules and work among the churches in Norway, then we are really in trouble!
God's words are stuck, as we sow we reap. This is a law that applies to all people whether one believes in the law or not.
The Bible is very clear that what we sow, that we reap - and it's quite logical too: if you sow potatoes, you will not harvest the bananas! No, you will harvest the potatoes, because that's what you sowed! The deeds you do, the wounds you and they will also reap!
"Bring ye then fruit of repentance." Matt 3:8
Sin is disobedience to God. Disobedience destroys our relationship with God.
In the beginning he created man in His own image. It means that we were created to live in fellowship with God (1 Gen 1:27). This community assumed absolute loyalty from the people. And then when the man decided to listen to God's adversary the devil, "missed" the target (1 Gen 3). Since that day, it seems that we all are born so that we continue to miss the goal of life. Sin originated in other words one time in our history, and has followed the human race since.
And now sin has become so accepted that we no longer really able to tell the difference between sin and righteousness in many cases, tragic?
But justice promises both individuals, church and a whole community up. Therefore, it pays to go the way of God and make up sin.
The way to God is through a righteous life
Ord. 14. 34 Justice promises a people of honor, but the sinner's shame is heavy to carry.
It pays to believe in God, it pays to go the way of God here in time and forever!
The world will always be deceived, not least in this end time in which Satan has so many strings to play and so many opportunities that offered the people of entertainment, free sex, sports, career, film, theater, music, etc. But the question is when will the church also deceived? we can not expose and get rid of the most basic sins, the homosexuals are here to stay past Norwegian state church and remarriage among the Free Church is here to stay, even if it is directly against God's word. Where will this end? I have no idea.
From my commentaries Revelation 22 11 Let the evildoers still do evil, and evil continue in their filth! Let the righteous still do what is right and the Saints continue in sanctification.
Now we return to what we would normally find in God's word of truth and knowledge. We find the same in a Prophet in the Old Testament that is often compared with John, the prophet Daniel. 12. 10 Many shall be purified, and washed and purified. But the wicked will continue in their wickedness, and none of them will know something. But the wise shall understand.
The world is hopelessly lost, but how about the Christians? If the on and on with the Lord? Unfortunately, it turns out that all too often becomes a landscape for on the road. But for those who walk with the Lord to walk be more glorious and more excellent. As believers, so similar to us more and more on Jesus as we walk with him.
12 Behold, I come quickly and My reward is with me, give to everyone according to his work.
We as a people will get paid what they deserve with the Lord. It is important to collect treasures in heaven than on earth. It is more precious than anything. The Bible gives instructions here.
Matt. 6. 33 But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and you get everything else as well.
13 I am Alpha and Omega, the first and last, the beginning and end.
Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet like A is in Norwegian. And the Omega is the last in the alphabet just like TO is in Norwegian.
Jesus is God's first creation and the last he will stand upon the earth. He is the first and the last. He is Alpha and, with all that implies.
Heb. 12. 2 with eyes fixed on him who is the faith the author and finisher of Jesus. To the delight he had in store, he endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and now he sat down on the right side of the throne of God. We see here again that many other places that Jesus is both the author and finisher. The dichotomy of Jesus is something that never ends. By his death and by his life, the last Adam, the second person, etc.
14 Blessed are those who wash their clothes, so they get right to the tree of life and go through the gates into the city.
We look up to people who get something. We feel sorry for people who fail. We think and talk like humans. But the real failure is failing to accept Jesus, and to really succeed is to accept Jesus. And if one reaches one day, then you have a success more than anyone else.
15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
Now there are those who read this verse so that it stands outside and is such as these. It is not true, there are those who live like this and would like to believe. But they will never reach, though they think. As living here as mentioned. Paul speaks in 2 Tim. 3 of those living in sin. But they are in fact many of them also love God, but there is nothing they love more than God, "his desires".
2. Tim. 3. 4 treacherous, rash, conceited. They love pleasure rather than God (end of quote).
We can not fool God!
If a Pastor or Evangelist says that one can be as divorced remarry while the other spouse lives, so it is not objective within its God, when God's Word says otherwise. There are many Pastors and Evangelists who has led many people to destruction to hide the sin. We can not hide sin, sin is sin whether it is committed in year 0, or now.
We have become too modern for God.
We have become too modern for God, but sin is sin no matter! You are the man got to hear King David, the indictment from God, we are currently not listen from. We can not proclaim and confess out the word of God, we live in sin, we must make up our sin. It is the only thing that keeps. Is a married again as a believer or married to a divorced can not confess or proclaim it away. One must make up his sin and leave it a live with if there is a marriage that can withstand the word of God light on.
Sin separates us from God
Sin is to miss the mark, like a football parks that kicks off target, maybe he is very close and when we say that it was a shame. Exactly the same happens to us when we do not hit the within its limits which God has given us through His Word. What we do not pass the sin. Thus, we are keeping as close to God's word and Jesus' commandment we are shooting target, while we follow their own beliefs and make choices that the Bible speaks against it is sin.
Too bad - the words and themes that do not fit in our time. Even in our churches, we talk much about sin. Most are allowed. For some, everything is permitted. The consequence of this is that when we do not save. What is there left of the gospel? We should read what the Bible says:
Rooms 3:10-12 .. as it is written: There is no one righteous, not one. There is no one who is wise, it is not one who seeks God. All are turned aside, everyone has been inept. There is no one who does good, not one.
Rooms 3:19-20 .. But we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to the people who are under the law, that every mouth should be closed and the whole world become guilty before God. Therefore no flesh will be justified for him at the works of the law. For through the law comes knowledge of sin.
This applies to us all. We are all sinners according to the Bible. It says that there is none righteous, not one.
Sin separates us from God. As we read it was the intention of the law that we find in the Old Testament, to show that we are all guilty before God. God can not condone sin. Sin must be atoned for. The wages of sin is death. In GT, it was so that people either had to die, or had animals die in people's place. It was a symbolic act, for which it stands: the blood of the spotless goats and calves could not take away sins.
How else would God have to create community with people again, as it was from the beginning? God is both loving and fair. How could it come together? Johs. 3.16 answers it. He gave himself a sacrifice without blemish. In Heb. 9.12 it says: Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with his own blood he entered the sanctuary once and for all, and found an eternal redemption.
He did it once and for all, including you and me. "Once and for all" in the meaning: that he does not have to do it several times.
Does this mean then that all people are automatically saved? No. Here comes into play that we are created in God's image with its own free will. God compels no one, as you do not want to force someone to love you. God's word says in John 1:12: But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become children of God, those who believe in His name.
We have a free choice.
What makes us sin?
First and foremost:
- It separates us from God, from communion with him.
- We have no peace - there is no peace for the wicked.
- Gives us feel guilty - guilty.
- We will not go to heaven, when we leave this world.
- We are lost.
But by accepting Jesus and thank you for having served my sin in my place, we experience the opposite of what is mentioned above:
- We have communion with God.
- We get to experience what Jesus says in John 2:27 p.m.: Peace I leave with you. My peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, fear not!
- We have the Peace of God in good conscience. No guilt, because he took our guilt and punishment on himself.
- We are going to heaven - not because we have done so well, but for Jesus' sake.
But we are completely finished with sin, when we have accepted Jesus?
No, it is not. We still live in the world, and Satan is the prince of this world. We can be outwitted and fall into sin, but it's so good in 1 John 2:1: My children! This I write unto you that ye shall not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
We must distinguish between falling in sin, and living in sin. The latter is serious and can lead to apostasy from God. We know the story of the woman caught in the act of adultery. Jesus saith unto her, Neither do I condemn you. Go and sin no more! Jesus forgave her, but he said that she should not continue to sin.
Many people, including Christians, go and carry the guilt of the unsettled conditions, and then build it up with new things that can not withstand the light of day.
- What has been said, but was not true.
- Envy.
- Slander.
- Black's work.
- Remarriage.
- Marrying a divorced.
- Abortion.
- Homosexual Practice
- Etc. You know best, even
We must be honest and say that all this is sin. The Bible is clear on that. It is serious. We place our eternal salvation is at stake.
This is tough stuff. I judge no one. It is neither my nor their cause. But how long should we conceal the word of God, or slide it under the carpet? But it's important for me to say is that we have a gracious and merciful God who will not strike out anyone who comes to him. He also calls on the apostates and says that he will heal their apostasy. It is wonderful to get to freedom. Experiencing the joy of being forgiven and justified for Christ's sake.
Finally, I quote it as Karsten Isachsen signing the 13 August in the book "Joy of Life - A book of sermons."
"Cemented sins.
The human mind are folded around their sins, their evil taxes, it is also closed to the word, the spirit and the power of God wished to enter.
When I am loyal to my sins, I have to keep God at arm's length. I can then proceed to hear the preaching of year in and year out, but nothing happens. Gospel glance off.
I may have opinions about everything in the church, I can join the large group that always shakes his head over the church's many visible weaknesses. But my event is safe for myself, I do not risk anything, not thrown more into the settlement and departure. Instead of owning a living faith, I own cemented sins.
When the gospel is preached, it is not faith, but the fog. This is why it is serious with my sins: They damage not only the time they happen. They have a continued effect in a human mind. Unconfessed sins is a spiritual force strong NOK to form a human life, strong NOK to anger rooted in a mind, strong NOK to shut Jesus out for good.
For such a person is the maximum of belief to have opinions about Christianity. But the spirit and strength, and nerve and the heat and the blood - it cleans and reconciliation - it is no longer in demand
For such a man is not only to ask God for forgiveness and then finished with it. It is not easy. But a new freedom and renewed self-esteem is within reach if Jesus will come forward through the mist, you get through the closed doors, you enter the inner room of despair. And there is no order on a person's faith before Jesus has been cleaned up in the timid.
After we have received Jesus we still need a daily renewal and repentance. Jesus speaks clearly about these things in the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5: "Think not that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish but to fulfill. "
Had Jesus abolished the law, we could have made peace with our sins. But he has fulfilled the law so that we instead should make peace with our God.
Is it long since you talked with your God?
Is that long ago that Jesus had come in to you in your loneliness?
Sins, the unconfessed sins, makes always a lonely person. And angry. But there is peace along the way to a bruised heart that will break up and return to their God.
Do you remember the story of the prodigal son in the Bible? He came to himself and broke up and went home to his father?
While he was still far off, his father saw him and ran to meet him and fell on his neck and kissed him. "(So far Karsten Isachsen)
Finally, I remind you this:
Isaiah 1:18: Come let us reason together, saith the Lord. Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
It is said that when Leonardo Da Vinci to paint his famous painting The Last Supper, he had been in a heated argument with a friend and he painted him as Judas. When he was painting Jesus was not he even realized he had to ask this friend for forgiveness and turn from their sin. When he had made up his friend, it was nice to paint Jesus.
