" WHAT'S UP WITH YOUR UNBELIEF "

Hey, thanks so much for stopping by, today we are talking about Unbelief. Are you ready, I mean are you truly ready to face the truth.

Now is the time to totally trust God in all things and in all ways. We must not wait for great calamities to drive us to God, but must open our hearts and minds to his direction now. In times of trouble trust in God, and don't look to your own understanding. Unbelief is the root of many sins as well as our problems. When you feel lost, it may be because you're looking everywhere but to God for your help and guidance.

The attitude of trust and confidence that the Bible calls unbelief of faith is not something we can obtain without help, after all faith is a gift from God. Regardless how much faith we have, we never reach the point of being self-sufficient. Faith is not stored away like money in the bank. Growing in faith is a constant process of daily renewing our trust in Jesus.

Christians are to be on guard, and remember that there is nothing worse than an unbeliever. Almost everyone of us has relatives, family of some kind. Family relationships are so important in the Father's eye's, Paul said, that a person who neglects his or her family responsibilities has denied the faith. Now, are you doing your part to meet the needs of those included in your family circle? It just might behoove you to find out where they stand in Christ. Being an unbeliever puts one on the trail to Hell (the lake of fire, or Gehenna)the place of punishment after death for all those who refuse to repent. Gehenna, or Hell, was prepared for the devil, his angels, and all those who do not believe in God. This is the final and eternal state of the wicked after the resurrection and the last judgment. Now when Jesus warns against unbelief, he is trying to save us from agonizing punishment. How many times have you heard an unbeliever say that he/she is just not ready for the Good News. It's breaks my heart to hear that as we are not guaranteed 5 minutes from now.

Until Next time...
