Malachi 3:18 says there should be a difference between the righteous and the wicked, those who serve God and those who do not. But, last year, I saw first hand that there really is no difference. The things that people who claim to be Christians have done are so disgusting that if my salvation depended on their righteousness, I would probably never decide to love God.
But, I am grateful that I love God and my love for him does not depend on what other people do. However, I know that many unbelievers already have a preconceived notion of what it means to be Christian and think that they are better off not going to church. I once was a part of that group. As a result, I will continue being a living epistle because I know that I may be the only picture of Christianity that someone ever sees.
Also, the Bible says in 2 Peter that a person who receives the truth about God and reverts back to their old shameful ways is like a dog who returns to its vomit. That's an ugly picture. That's why the Bible says that we have to work out our salvation with fear and trembling (see Philippians 2:12).
When Jesus died on the cros for us, he died to redeem us from sin and death. A person who confesses Jesus as Savior, but does not live a transformed life, does not understand what Jesus did on the cross. Jesus does not change his mind about us so we should not change our minds about him.
Be the difference!
About Me
- Sandra Remilien
- Sandra Remilien is an American. Sandra Remilien is a Christian Miami native who loves to write. She is currently unemployed because a jealous, illiterate Haitian witch named Jeaccinette Philogene has been doing witchcraft to monitor her so she can do witchcraft on every job that she applies to so they do not hire her. Jeaccinette did witchcraft to get the password to her blog and gave someone and Guylene and Luna, who did witchcraft on her, the password to her blog so they could add things, change what she wrote so words are misspelled and it does not make sense and so people do not know the truth about the witchcraft that she did because she is stupid. Sandra Remilien does not like Haitians because they do witchcraft. Jeaccinette is doing witchcraft to make people say Sandra Remilien is Haitian and was born in Haiti so she can do witchcraft to make Sandra Remilien uplift Haitians. Sandra received a masters degree in journalism from Columbia University in 2008 and a bachelors degree in print journalism from the University of Miami in 2006.
