This blog is for all people everywhere in all walks of life. Young, old, it doesn't matter because everyone deals with it.
Problems.
Problems are everywhere involving everyone. This is a hard subject to talk about. Some people think they have no problems [probably because they themselves are the problem], others know they have problems and want to change. I'll tell you this right now: if you keep trying to be a good person, you'll never truly be a good person.
Let me explain.
Contrary to [very] popular belief, there is only one absolute truth. No "that's ok for you, but i'm getting to heaven this way, but we're both right so it doesn't really matter," type thing going on. Bottom line there has to be absolute truth or there would be no order. Man's attempt at absolute truth is government. The government sets up laws for people to follow. Some follow them [at least the big ones], others don't. It works ok, not perfect. In order to get to God we need perfect.
Therefore God is the absolute Truth [email me or comment if you have trouble with that reasoning: shrankaplooza@gmail.com]. What He says goes. You can't argue with Him; there is only one choice: to agree with Him. So no matter how hard you try to keep man's laws [which ends up looking kind of pathetic anyway] you can't be perfect like God. So we're in a predicament here. Some people do all the right things. It's true, there are people that look really good [morally] on the outside. What i'm saying is: it doesn't matter what's going on on the outside!
The Bible says: "Man looks at the outside, but God looks at the heart." We're not talking about a literal, beating heart. In Scripture, when it mentions the word "heart" in this context it's talking about DESIRES. Oh shoot, that gets just about all humans everywhere. No one has an excuse on this account, no matter how good they look on the outside. Somewhere along the line, they have thought something other than what God thinks. This is a problem. When someone is looking really good on the outside, it gets harder and harder to have correct desires. Why? Because it's fun to have people like you. When you do good things, people like you. So the question we all need to ask is:
WHY ARE WE DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING? IS IT SELFISH?
Honestly, most of the things we do is very selfish. God knows that and sent His son Jesus to die on the cross. When he died, he died for humanities sins. Everything we have ever done wrong was nailed into that cross Jesus died on. All we have to do is believe that Jesus lived a perfect life [one we can't live] died in place of us for our sin, and three days later, rose from the dead and left our sins in the grave, and you will be going to heaven.
Some of you are wondering how Jesus could rise from the dead. See there's something called the Trinity. The trinity is God in three persons: Father, Son, and Spirit. Jesus could raise himself from the dead because he was not just human, he was 100% God as well. Cool huh?
If you accept the work Jesus did on your behalf, let me know. If you did, you are now JUSTIFIED. This means God no longer looks at you and sees sin, He sees Jesus' perfect sacrifice. Great huh? Again if you have any questions or accepted Jesus' sacrifice let me know.
