We went from paradise to shame and guilt to now murder in just a the first four chapters of the Bible. It's so sad. Sin had destoyed so many relationships the most important one was the one the one with God. We are created in the image of God which means we ALL have dignity and worth. This is why murder is such a tragedy. Remember we we created in His image to rule, not one another, but the world that He placed us in. What an awesome privelage yet all we can think about now is ourselves and what will get us ahead or on top. Before you think to yourself- I would never kill someone, remember Jesus said- “You have heard that it was said to our people long ago, ‘You must not murder anyone.Any person who commits murder will be judged.’ But I tell you, don’t be angry with anyone. If you are angry with others, you will be judged. And if you insult someone, you will be judged by the high court. And if you call someone a fool, you will be in danger of the fire of hell. Matthew 5:21-22 ERV Terrifying words! No one can stand before God alone without blame. Thank you Jesus for coming, living a perfect life that I could never live and dying a death that I deserve that I would be forgiven and be in right relationship to God our Father. My prayer is that each of us would live with this confidence and assurance. Have a great day, Loved Ones, and God bless you real good!
