GOD IS PERFECT - WE ARE NOT

GOD IS PERFECT – WE ARE NOT

Tuesday, May 14, 2019

  “God is perfect. Everything He does and says is perfect. Therefore, His standard is perfect. Anything that “comes short” of His standard must be sin. [Rom.3:23]As James tells us, “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point he is guilty of all.” [Jam.2:10] That’s God’s criterion for being with Him. We sin, we die. [Rom.6:23a] And we all have sinned. [Rom.3:23] Death [without accepting His gift of eternal life] involves physical and spiritual separation from God. Without repentance, it will last forever.” (Paragraph 2 of Missing the Mark – Missing the Solution, T.A. McMahon, THE BEREAN CALL)

  Any questions?

  Tomorrow we’ll be looking at Jesus’ disciples question “Who then can be saved?”

PS. Biblical repentance is: μετάνοια

metanoia

met-an'-oy-ah

From G3340; (subjectively) compunction (for guilt, including reformation); by implication reversal (of [another’s] decision): - repentance.
