Resistance Because Of Trust
Do You Trust Jesus?
Prov 3:5-6 (NIV) Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Everything you are going to be doing in Christianity will be dependent on whether or not you trust God. There are six things that Jesus requires of you that if you won’t do, He won’t help you. These are desire, study, pray, believe, love, and take faith-action. The Relationship Is Broken Without Trust
Ready For All Opposing Views
Trust God And Resist Sin
Rom 5:12 (NIV) Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man (Adam), and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. The world around you has been badly damaged by sin. The wars, the disease, the famines, the storms, the tyranny, the crime, and the suffering in general are the results of sin. It has ravaged God’s perfect creation. If you blame God for all these things rather than sinful man, it will make it difficult for you to trust Him. But, if you join God in fighting sin, you will learn how to resist your body, the world’s teachings, and the devil’s lures. |
Trusting God’s Law
Rom 5:13 (NIV) For before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not taken into account when there is no law. This is what brought the flood; this is what brought wars that didn’t bring “good guys” to the rescue. If EVERYTHING is legal, then no matter how wrong, bad, or evil you are treated, it is all legal. You can’t take them to court; you can’t call the law enforcement people; and, you can’t accuse anyone of not being fair--There’s no law against any of it. Now do you trust God and His laws? If Adam And Eve Had Trusted God
Rom 5:14 (NIV) Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was a pattern of the One to come. There was a tree in the garden of Eden called the tree of life. If Adam and Eve had chosen it, their bodies would have never got sick, got old, and died. But, No! They chose the forbidden tree of the knowledge of good and evil. So, because they didn’t trust God, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses. Do you see how important it is to trust God? Choose To Trust God
Rom 5:15 (NIV) But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man (Adam), how much more did God’s grace and the gift that came by the grace of the One Man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many! Have you ever wondered or heard someone ask: “Why doesn’t God do something about all this?” He has! But, it wasn’t some mighty move that put the entire planet back in order. It was an offer to each, individual person. You can help ANYONE who wants the sin solution and God will give it to THEM. Gen 1:27 (NIV) So God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Why won’t God just make everyone get along? Why doesn’t He solve all these problem so we can have peace, safety, prosperity, and unity? When God made humans in His own image, that gave them a God-given free will. All the people on the planet are doing what they want to. This earth can have peace, safety, prosperity, and unity by everyone choosing to live according to the principles of the Bible. Trust God’s Free Gift
Rom 5:16 (NIV) Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one man’s sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification. No one has to earn this gift, deserve this gift, or pay for this gift. They can be set free from the drives of their body, the addictive pressures of this world, and the evil temptations of Satan. Jesus PURCHASED this provision with His death on the cross so it would be free for everyone. You can trust a God like that! Trust The Cure From Adam’s Disease
Rom 5:17 (NIV) For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God’s abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the One Man, Jesus Christ. Adam CONTAMINATED all humans; so, Jesus did what it took to provide the cure for all humans. Plus He opened the door for everyone to be born again into God’s family. Anyone who wants to can freely become a child of God. That’s the kind of generosity that can be trusted. Life For All Who Trust Jesus
Rom 5:18 (NIV) Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. Jesus had to give up His position in heaven and come down here and join us. He didn’t just feel sorry for us. He didn’t just send us some resources to help us feel better. He didn’t just sympathize with us and wish us well. He did what it took to provide you with a whole new life here and an eternal life in heaven. Trust And Obey
Rom 5:19 (NIV) For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the One Man the many will be made righteous. If one man, Adam, could make us all sinners, then God established the rule that One Man, Jesus, would be able to make us all righteous, if we what Him to. Everyone has a God-given free will; they can go on sinning and doing horrible things to themselves and others. But, Jesus offers righteousness that does only good things to ourselves and others. That’s fair! |
