The Daily Word of Righteousness

The Resurrection and the Life, #7

If you say, "See, we did not know this," Does He not consider it who weighs the hearts? And does He not know it who keeps your soul? And will He not render to man according to his work? (Proverbs 24:12—NASB)

In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. (Romans 1:27—NIV)

Numerous Americans are of the opinion that God does not know what they are doing. They engage in sexual intercourse and then murder the baby, citing their "reproductive rights." They practice homosexual behavior, knowing that such perversity is condemned in both Testaments. Why is homosexual behavior condemned? Because the eternal servants of God can only be brought forth through a woman in childbirth. We must be born physically before we can be born again into the Kingdom of God.

The practice of homosexuality is Satan's way of preventing potential servants of God from being born into the world.

So all of the wickedness that Americans suppose they are getting away with because God doesn't see them, or there is no God, or they are saved "by grace," or whatever other rationalization they employ, is all smoke and mirrors. At some point each person shall hear the voice of God. He shall come forth, his body from its place of interment and his spirit from the spirit realm. Then he, professing Christian or not, shall indeed receive what he has practiced during his lifetime on the earth.

There is so much wickedness all around us! We fret ourselves to death. It helps very much to understand that every single action, wicked and righteous, has been recorded in writing by the angels and remains in God's perfect memory.

No one will escape the Kingdom law of sowing and reaping, whether or not he or she is a Christian.

A Christian does good by obeying the priestly calling which is administered by the Holy Spirit.

An individual who is not of God's elect, who has not heard or perceived the Gospel of the Kingdom, who does not have this kind of calling, does good by obeying his conscience. As Paul says in the first chapter of Romans, nature itself instructs him. The heavens declare the Glory of God and their testimony has gone to the ends of the earth, and throughout every age.

A Christian does bad when he neglects his salvation; when he refuses to heed the Lord's invitation to come out of the world and live unto God, to not entangle himself or herself with the affairs of this life.

A person who has not been called from the beginning of the world to be part of God's Israel, of the royal priesthood, does bad by searing his conscience until he or she is performing all the wicked acts described in the first chapter of the Book of Romans.

To be continued.
