I am so nearsighted; I’m blind as a bat. Without contacts or glasses, I can hardly see to walk. Everything is blur of colors with no definition to anything. Sometimes it is such a blur, I can’t even distinguish what I’m seeing – the world just runs together and merges into a blurred blob: just as we have become in our Christian faith.
Nothing seems to be clear any longer; we have blurred the lines between the commandments of God and our own selfish wants. We no longer keep ourselves separate from the world – holy unto God; we wouldn’t want to be labelled as intolerant … or ignorant … or just plain old-fashioned. We now tolerate any and all sin in the name of ‘brotherly love’.
There is no questioning God’s love for us. It was so great that "He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). But we seem to have forgotten that God absolutely hates sin. Otherwise, Jesus would not have needed to bled and died for our sins. Despite the sacrifice, the commandments and all the blessings God has bestowed upon us, we can no longer see the sinner and sin; the lines are blurred to the point of obscurity. Whatever feels good is right, no matter what Jesus said or God thinks.
There is coming a day where nothing will matter except what God thinks. When that day comes, what will He think of you?
