Do you wish to be a blessing or a curse where you go?

Do you wish to be a blessing or a curse where you go?

•    “Jehovah hath accomplished his wrath, he hath poured out his fierce anger; And he hath kindled a fire in Zion, which hath devoured the foundations thereof. The kings of the earth believed not, neither all the inhabitants of the world, That the adversary and the enemy would enter into the gates of Jerusalem. [It is] because of the sins of her prophets, [and] the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her. They wander as blind men in the streets, they are polluted with blood, so that men cannot touch their garments. Depart ye, they cried unto them, Unclean! depart, depart, touch not! When they fled away and wandered, men said among the nations, they shall no more sojourn [here].” (Lamentations 4.11-15).

Many times, we look on the Ha-Satan as our biggest predicament. But you can believe: there is nothing that preclude the most the growing of the Church than false believers. When someone hears the word of Jesus and doesn’t allow this to be ingrafted in their innermost, such a person makes themselves into an objector of Christ, ruling out everyone who are trying to go in the Kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 23.13):

•    “And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a animal trap and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.” (Isaiah 8.14).

Blessed is him that doesn’t feel offended by the Truth (Matthew 11.6); rather abide by It. Who don’t believe in Jesus in according to what is written in the Holy Scripture (John 7.37-39), certainly will be condemned to turn away all the harbinger of the Good News of Jesus Christ:

•    “Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone; as it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumbling stone and rock of offence: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.” (Romans 9.32,33).

Imagine how terrible is to be condemned to be a curse in every place and all the time (Deuteronomy 28.16,19), incapable of receiving the good, much less to do what is good (Romans 3.9):

•    “And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: unto which also they were appointed.” (1Peter 2.8).

Such a person is sentenced to debar all opportunity of mercy and grace and, therefore, to be a filthy rag that everyone abhors and try to keep it at bay.

So, let’s seek out a grandiose day for us, but always living Christ and His Word exactly how it is written in the Holy Scripture, without adding, taking out or wrenching anything in it. Take care.
