STRIVING FOR RIGHTEOUS LIVING

"...the Law is not intended for righteous people but for lawbreakers and rebels, for ungodly people and sinners, for those who are unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers, their mothers, or other people, for those involved in sexual immorality, for homosexuals, for kidnappers, for liars, for false witnesses, and for whatever else goes against the healthy teaching" 1Tim.1:9,10 ISV.
The reason why preaching of the law still prevail on our pulpits today is because many who claim to be righteous in Christ and speak vehemently against the law live lives for which the law was meant - lawless lives.
They give impression that sins committed by "saints" can not be brought under God's righteous judgement while the Bible says "Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, AND DO THE SAME, that you will escape the judgment of God?" Rom.2:3 WEB. Read also 1Cor.6:8-10; Gal.5:19-21.
Don't be decieved O comrade, God is respecter of no man, whatever a man shall sow, that he shall also reap. "For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. Gal.6:7,8 AMP.
Strive O comrade to live righteously since you are made a saint.
May God's grace be multiplied unto us all.
Shalom.
