AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 16:24 ¶ Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]. |
Subject: Can one be refused services when sinful? |
Bible Note: Doc: I have seen the heart breaking results of people involved in such sin. I am rather hurt when I hear someone excuse a sin and call it a "mistake". Jesus paid the ultimate cost for our sins. Mistakes do not even close for the Blood of Christ to shed and die for. Thank your for the encouragement, and kind words. justme |
