Fear of Judgement Day Should lead you to Repentance.

As Christians in the 21st century, we are told not to judge. Some even have quoted our own Bible to us, “Judge not, lest ye be judged” (Matthew 7:1-3). But what is this fear that is motivating sinners to pronounce their own judgment upon those who take the Bible seriously? I believe it’s their own fear of standing before a holy God themselves and being ultimately accountable for their own sins and rejection of Jesus Christ after they die!

For the Christian our judge will be our Saviour, so we don’t fear going to hell precisely because we have trusted in him, and we are forgiven, but for those who haven’t entrusted their lives to Jesus Christ, they have everything to fear because the God they have rejected will ultimately condemn them, unless they truly repent before they die.

Not wanting to be judged in this life would make our particular judgment after death extremely terrifying. Some people who think like this have an extremely distorted view of the Bible and Christian theology. They tend to make up their own theology about salvation and the judgment, betting that their is no hell, and possibly no heaven at all. Most live their lives for hedonistic pursuits, looking to chance and betting that if there is a Heaven, somehow they will be accepted. However the Bible teaches that anyone who goes to Heaven, first must admit they are sinners, (Romans 3:23).

When we come to God in this way, (Spiritually bankrupt) we then are able to abandon our own self efforts and trust Jesus Christ alone for our salvation. God doesn’t want us trusting in ourselves because His plan of salvation includes a Saviour, and we are not our own Saviour, we are sinners. To deny Original Sin by saying we never died spiritually as a human race or individually, is to deny biblical theology, and the nature and character of God in human history. It creates a false narrative and a false religion by denying the old and new covenant. It denies the existence of the God of the Bible and makes you a denier of God, the Bible, and the Holy Trinity and also a heretic.

To deny Original Sin is to deny reality. However this is precisely what some people think, that by denying biblical truths, they can silence the God of the Bible, their own conscience and ultimately their own judgment after they die! This is Mike.

Some Bible Verses on Money.

Bible verses about money. I bet you didn’t think the bible said that? Proverbs 23:5 When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky. 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. Proverbs 13:11 Wealth quickly gained is quickly wasted — easy come, easy go! But if you gradually gain wealth, you will watch it grow. Psalm 62:10 Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the centre of your life. Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Ecclesiastes 11:1 Cast your bread upon the waters, for after many days you will find it again. Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that

My Story.

In 1999 I suffered a mental health crisis and admitted myself into the hospital where I live, in which I was given a mental health diagnosis. I didn’t want to receive medication at the time, but unwillingly accepted it. I was in the hospital for about two months, when I asked my doctor if I could go home, and he said yes, even though he thought it would have been better if I stayed longer. I was glad to be home though, but at 25, it took some adjusting to feel truly at home. One of the problems I was having at home was it was hard for me to eat the food in the house. I was having a psychosis where I felt the food wasn’t mine, and I literally had to go out to eat, or buy bread from the supermarket and take it home to eat it. Eventually this wore off, but I don’t remember how long. I was now on ODSP and had a check come to me every month in order to have financial support. I would occasionally have a crisis, and ask my mom to drive me to the hospital, but eventually the crisis would

Why has the church lost its capacity and power?

The church has modernized itself and in the process has lost something very valuable. It has lost its capacity to be personable. The way we reach lost souls is by seeing them, by getting to know them, and by recognizing them, but people are getting lost in the church. The church has become a busy place and is also becoming a less holy place. To make disciples we have to get to know people, and technology in the church is depersonalizing souls, and depersonalizing God for them. Faith becomes a marketable commodity, whereas in the past, churches and their leaders nourished and valued personal faith. While faith is still valued, it’s becoming something that is marketable, which reminds me of the story of Jesus in the temple turning over tables (Matthew 21:12-17). The problem isn’t that the church doesn’t work or doesn’t want to share the gospel, it could be how we are doing it. The church is currently being run like a business, and each Christian metaphorically speaking has a profit val
