"Entering In" -Too

"Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms." (Psalms 95:2)
I am sorry for there being more to think about than there was information; but at some point, I need to think that there are some things you already know. Like, don't you know Jesus has paid the price to make us holy? You might be surprised to know how few Christians believe that to be so; instead they settle on the forgiveness, and then leave it at that. That might be the reason there are so many who call themselves Christian, yet they also glory in their gay lifestyle; they don't even hide it anymore, because they have accepted it as who they are, because the world says it's okay. It's not okay! Jesus not only died on that cross so that are sins could be forgiven, He died to give us new life in Him; life that is holy and right before the Father; a life where we actually can fellowship with a Holy God. But don't think for a minute that you can bring anything that is an abomination into His presence, because it is not going to be allowed. Now there are not only Christians who live in gay lifestyles, but more and more, there are people being ordained as gay ministers; even in some of the most revered Religious Institutions. No wonder Islam is quickly becoming the largest religion in the world; at least they still consider it forbidden and wrong; at least publicly they do. I'm sorry if that has offended anyone who might have thought otherwise. I usually don't speak out against certain lifestyles, it's just that this whole GLTBXYZ thing is getting way out of control. Now they people getting married to robots; it's like the movie "Her" is actually coming to life. Anywho, our freedom from sin does not give us freedom to sin; we are called to be holy, as God is Holy! Just because that might not be a reality for you, does not mean that you have been given a pass; but you might need to ask for forgiveness and repent more often than most others do. Basically, what I believe God is saying, is that He has given us the choice to enter into fellowship with Him, but that choice is to be on His terms, not our own; so we really don't have a choice which way we enter in, because there is only one True Way to enter in, by being holy...
"See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don't recognize that we are God's children because they don't know him. Dear friends, we are already God's children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is. And all who have this eager expectation will keep themselves pure, just as he is pure. Everyone who sins is breaking God's law, for all sin is contrary to the law of God. And you know that Jesus came to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is." (1 John 3:1-6) NLT
