"Case For The Creator" -Too

"He shall judge the poor of the people, He shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor." (Psalms 72:4) I obviously do not have much respect the certain translations of the Bible; I was raised on the New World Translation, so you can see how sensitive I am towards changing the meaning of God's Holy Word. I know that I have shared this before, but why would anyone doubt that God could do anything? If a person believes that God created the heavens and the earth, then where does the doubt come from that causes them to not believe in the virgin birth? Shh, don't tell anyone this, but I know where it comes from; I know 150% where that lie comes from, because it comes from the same source that had to tried to prevent it from happening for four thousand years. But God does not allow His will not to happen! You can question the outcome all you want, but when God says that it will be so, then He pretty much knows what He is talking about. Now, to the point of the message. Although the word "judge" is not the same word used in verse 2, the word "poor" and "people" are; and yes, there is something that only God can do when it comes to making a way for us to be free from judgment, He changes the rules! But wait a moment, I thought God never changes, what's up with that? Who said anything about God changing; rules are made for certain conditions, not conditions made for rules. I think I might be touching some sensitive subject matter, so have the weak leave the room. Just because sin was defeated on the cross, does not give us the right to keep on sinning; neither does the climate of sinfulness in the world allows for the bar of sin to be lifted; none of those things are what I am talking about. I am talking about the conditions that God has established, not the conditions that we create or assume to exist; it is only God who allows certain things to happen, and only God will be the judge when all is said and done. But the point of the rule, the rule that mattered most was that of forgiveness of sin; the sin never changed from being a sin, but the judgment of the sin had been dealt with once and for all! How do we comprehend that? I don't think we actually can. We can accept it or leave it, but we can never comprehend the magnitude of what happened on that cross. There was something that was created upon that cross, something beyond anyone's thought or imagination. When Jesus died upon that cross, He did not just die in place of our death, He defeated the curse that sin places upon every single person that has ever lived, ever! He shattered the thing, like in a million pieces, and nobody or nothing can ever put it back together again. That is the kind of God that I serve; that is what my Creator has done...
"When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam's sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. Yes, people sinned even before the law was given. But it was not counted as sin because there was not yet any law to break. Still, everyone died -from the time of Adam to the time of Moses -even those who did not disobey an explicit commandment of God, as Adam did. Now Adam is a symbol, a representation of Christ, who was yet to come. But there is a great difference between Adam's sin and God's gracious gift. For the sin of the one man, Adam, brought death to many. But even greater is God's wonderful grace and His gift of forgiveness to many through this other man, Jesus Christ. And the result of God's gracious gift is very different from the result of that one man's sin. For Adam's sin led to condemnation, but God's free gift leads to our being made right with God, even though we are guilty of many sins. For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God's wonderful grace and His gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ. Yes, Adam's one sin brings condemnation for everyone, but Christ's one act of righteousness brings a right relationship with God and new life for everyone. Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous. God's law was given so that all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God's wonderful grace became more abundant. So just as sin ruled over all people and brought them to death, now God's wonderful grace rules instead, giving us right standing with God and resulting in eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 5:12-21) NLT
