Bible Note: I'm a tea-totaller myself. Nevertheless, in that day, there will be no sin. Everything we do, think, want, hope, delight, enjoy will bring glory to God perfectly and completely and entirely. Do you really think that anything He gives to His own, even the smallest crumb, will cause you doubt or hesitation? Do you think that there would be anything unholy in His presence? If so, my friend, you do greatly err (Romans 14:7; 1 Corinthians 2:9; cf Revelation 22). So don't worry about. Walk according to your conscience today, and continue to instruct that conscience by the Word. Sooooo many important doctrines of Scripture over which to deliberate... How easily we all end up focusing on minutia, straining the gnats and swallowing camels. :-) |
