Subject: Are all sins the same to God? |
Bible Note: Hi Lionheart, I like how verse 18 hints at the effects of unresolved sin in our lives: Job 11:18 "Then you would trust, because there is hope; And you would look around and rest securely. When we harbor sin, we are not living the life of faith, and we are not trusting God the same as when we are right with Him. We don't have, or at least I don't have the feeling of safety and security, because I know that until I get right with God I may be disciplined by Him. Even so, I can trust God to do what is best for me, but its more preferable to learn the easy way than the hard way - speaking from experience! I know that even if we do minimize our sin, God doesn't! Love in Christ, Mark |
