Are we total lost, without any redeeming features, forever enemies of God?
Is the gospel just showing us our state and saying we are forgiven but never rising about our state.
If this is so, to suggest we could ever be blameless, pure, righteous is a deluded dream of hyprocrites.
Only blind people who do not see how much we should be hated would dare to suggest this to a Holy
God. It is like trampling on the cross, because nothing we can do is worthy of anything.
But what if sin comes from a betrayed heart, that distorts and changes everything good into failure.
What is our problem is only a broken relationship, between us and God?
If the relationship is restored, the heart healed and born again then we can walk as Children of God.
Jesus calls us His bride, His redeemed people, His body, His precious friends.
This sounds like a blameless, holy, pure people walking in love.
So we are not hated, despised, failures, lost and empty, forever condemned, but a redeemed and healed
people walking into eternity.
So those who hate themselves and condemn their fellow believers as hypocrites
have fallen for a lie of the enemy who desires to dispossess of the very salvation Jesus is offering.
And the real difference between the two groups. The second have let love and God in, to show them
how much they are accepted and precious in His sight. The first have never loved themselves as Christ
loves them and let the truth of a sinner is forgiven dawn on their souls.
