“False Claims”
If we claim
to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not
live out the truth. But if we walk in
the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the
blood of Jesus His Son, purifies us from all sin. If we claim to be without sin, we deceive
ourselves and the truth is not in us. If
we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and
purify us from all unrighteousness. If
we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word is not
in us. 1 John 1:6-10
The Apostle
John, is speaking to believers, those who have given their HEARTS and LIVES to
God. But they are WALKING or LIVING in DARKNESS still, and yet they CLAIM to
have FELLOWSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD.
This is LIVING a LIE, and does NOT have a trace of TRUTH, in the CLAIM,
thus it is a FALSE CLAIM.
If we WALK or LIVE in the LIGHT as God is in
the LIGHT, because there is NO DARKNESS in Him, we then can have FELLOWSHIP
with Him and Him with us. And we can be
PURIFIED by the BLOOD of His Son, Jesus Christ, and be FORGIVEN of ALL our sins. Now, we NEED to be very CAREFUL, and NOT
CLAIM to be WITHOUT sin, if we CLAIM to be without sin, we DECEIVE ourselves
and the TRUTH is NOT in us, and we have just made another FALSE CLAIM.
Because we
are in the FLESH, we fail God, and NEED to CONFESS our sins to Him, and ask Him
for His FORGIVENESS DAILY!! When one
WALKS or LIVES according to the flesh, their minds are set on what the FLESH
desires, and the mind that is governed by the flesh is DEATH, (Spiritual), but
if it is governed by the Spirit it is LIFE and PEACE, EVERLASTING. If you are WALKING or LIVING in the realm of
the FLESH (Darkness) you cannot PLEASE God, and you cannot have FELLOWSHIP with
Him. As a Child of God, if you are
walking in the DARKNESS, you will face God’s JUST DISCIPLINE, and are at risk
of losing your REWARDS. Those who are
TRUE BELIEVERS, have CRUCIFIED the FLESH with its PASSIONS and DESIRES. Since the Spirit of the LIVING GOD indwells EVERY
TRUE BELIEVER, they SHOULD STRIVE to LIVE by the SPIRIT and STRIVE to KEEP in
step with the HOLY SPIRIT of God. When
they do this, they can ENJOY the TRUE FELLOWSHIP with God, and NOT be making
FALSE CLAIMS, which holds NO TRUTH.
If you have
NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, through the shed blood of Jesus Christ,
then you definitely CANNOT have any kind of FELLOWSHIP with Him. And you are headed for an ETERNITY in HELL,
with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY OF ESCAPE.
This is NOT what God wants for YOU, and He is WILLING to FORGIVE you of
ALL your sins, if you will TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle (the DARKNESS)
and TURN TO GOD, (the LIGHT), with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that
JESUS died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before
God. Then CONFESS your sins to Him and
ask Him for His FORGIVENESS, because He is FAITHFUL and JUST to FORGIVE
you. Then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION
and an ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS. And DON’T be GUILTY of making any FALSE
CLAIMS. Do this NOW, while you still
can. He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
