Acts 17:31 (NKJV) 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead."
In an old Daniel Boone episode, a man took the life of three innocent victims, caught for his sins against humanity, one of the actors said, "that man needed killin." The Word of God clearly reveals man must deal with those who take the lives of others, 'Whoever kills any man shall surely be put to death. Leviticus 24:17 (NKJV) and, He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints. Revelation 13:10 (NKJV)
The Word is delivered by God to believers, it is practiced by believers, it is fulfilled by believers, it is the Life of the believer, the world cannot understand that which is not for the lost. When men take their eyes off God and begin to embrace the fallen world system they become enamored with the sins of futility. Jesus points to the problem, For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies. Matthew 15:19 (NKJV), the heart is the seat of mans sinful actions, not inanimate objects, not mental instability, not even the other person, it is the individuals responsibility. (Note: no sin is greater than another.)
Are you confused about how to live, just look at Jesus, He is the only example God gives? All will stand and give an account before God, no one who deliberately sins will escape God's judgment.
Heavenly Father many presume You are not going to judge sin harshly, help us to live as those alive from the dead, those who have put away foolish thinking. Help us Lord to obey with lives that prove You Are. Amen
