I Pursue Righteousness!
PS 38:21 Septuagint
"They Repay me evil for good, Slander me because I Pursue Righteousness!
I want to take this time to commend those few who can see through this myriad of lies and deception, and who are actually pursuing righteousness in the fear of the Lord.
Many who sit under and accept the strong delusion are very sincere people, as you can see this in their diligent desire to please God and obey Him, but they fail to see how they are not only slandering the few preaching truth, but also mock those who peruse righteousness, as commanded by God in His word!
All through scripture we are commanded to lay aside all filthiness and wickedness, and hunger and thirst to do what is right.
Now doing what is right is much more than being a good citizen, or doing good outer dead works to appease your conscience, no it is walking in faith and obedience to the truth that purifies the soul
We again are commanded to seek after righteousness, holiness, purity of heart, and guarding it against the wiles of the devil, which can only come from a truly repented heart, now crucified with Christ, seeking the things of God over the dead world!
Rom 6:22 But now, being made free from sin, and having become slaves to God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
So who are the righteous? And who are the self-righteous?
The righteous:
The truly repentant soul…
The obedient few who obey God from their heart
The ones who have forsook the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life.
The brave few defending and contending to keep the truth alive in a dead world and church set in their own ways and traditions.
And those who just do what is right by obeying God and His commands!
The un-righteous:
Those who claim to be the Romans wretch, chief of sinners, who brag about sinning each day in thought, word, and deed.
Those who are clean on the outside, but have never repented of their vile sins, leading a dark and double minded life, still in great bondage and addiction.
The pundits who line the popular churches today who preach the wide road to destruction telling the ignorant and undiscerning members, they can sin and NOT die.
And those who come against the crucified saints calling them prideful and self-righteous because they have actually crucified their flesh with Christ as commanded, and stand aloof of the saved IN sin churches, and stand strong against the onslaught of lies and deception.
But to be honest with yourself as you can conclude that the narrow way to the cross has been replaced with a lukewarm, fun and games mentality in the church, where the pop culture of today is the primary interest, over repentance, holiness, purity and obedience to the truth, they love their vain attraction and funny stories, in place of the powerful words of God, to drive them to their knees, cut them to the heart, putting on sack cloth and ashes, seeking the mercy of God, and assuming nothing from Him!
Isa 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Isa 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, said the LORD.
So who are the self-righteous? Those who are pursuing holiness, godliness and separation? Or those who slander us who claim to be right with God!
Psa 66:18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, Jehovah will not hear;
Psa 66:19 Surely God has heard; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
Psa 66:20 Blessed is God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me.
God’s mercy falls on the righteous, undefiled saints, seeking after doing what is right, and guarding their heart and mind from the corrupting influence of the world!
