Lord Lord ..... Presumption

[PeterJens]

Jesus told a parable on the last day.
A group who served Him and showed love to those they met, were serving and helping Jesus.
Another group who did not help or serve failed to help Jesus.

Many presume spirituality, to knowing Jesus, to telliñg at great length who knows Him and who does not. Jesus's focus is on who showed His heart and who did not. A loving heart gives, it does not count itself, it waits for others to testify.

We wait for Christ's confirmation of our response not our presumption. Love weeps at the lostness of man in their sin, that itself is testimony enough.

What I did not expect is wolves to beat me up claiming I know nothing, but then Jesus did warn us how violent they are, but still we are just lambs to the slaughter. Something deep in their hearts hates knowing their true fate.

 

[PeterJens]

I have read wolves talk. They lay a trail that sounds plausible, and some will call them brother or sister. They desire respect, authority, dominion.

Once achieved the poison flows, the condemnation, the anger, the words anti-christ, blasphemer, trampling the cross, being sick, etc. It is like a bag of dye is burst in a clean river. Once burst the hurt can be blamed on the other party. Evil is just us, Jesus is our covering, God is blind, cleansing is only virtual.

Pour love out, forgive their sin, bless, be gentle and speak of the power of the cross to change us, and they flee.

Dye gets washed away by the Spirit, their evil given no place, their folly for all to see. Yes they presume to know the Lord but their anger and actions proclaim otherwise. God bless you.
