Can't Justifiy It!

Good Morning!  Rom 2:11 There is no partiality with God. Let me ask you do you think gossip and murder can be ranked in the same category? Can anger be on the same level as adultery? Do pride and foolishness fall in the same category as fornication and theft? In Roms 1:29-32 there is an extensive list of sins. You can find other lists in Gal 5:19-21, Mark 7:21-22 and 2 Tim3:2-5. Our society today tends to categorize them and thus make us believe some are worse than others. And the problem this raises for me,is that helps me to Justify some of the things I do today. How about you? Things like telling a little white lie because you didn't want to hurt someones feelings. Or having a little sex outside of marriage. Oh! But those are 2 different things? But there not! In Gods eyes sin is sin there is no partiality or justification. In a world that classifies us according to social status, race, wealth, intelligence, and ability, we need to remind ourselves that those divisions are arbitrary and irrelevant to God. The ground at the foot of the cross is level. We will all stand there one day and realize  how short we fall each day from living according to His standards and loving Him with the love and devotion he deserves. devotion he deserves. So today when you sin,and we will. Because we all fall short of the glory of God. Don't justify it! Don't make excuses for it. Realize that God is aware of all our sin and will judge us according to the way we respond to Him and to the death of His son on the cross. So today every time you sin, put Jesus there! And see how insignificant that sin might be. You can't minimize sin! After all that is what killed our Savior. HABD!
