You cannot be good in God’s eyes without being cleansed by Jesus work of the cross…

You cannot be good in God’s eyes without being cleansed by Jesus work of the cross…

Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned...Matthew 12:33-37.

 

Once you hear about Jesus Christ and the freedom from evil He has provided…His life…death…and resurrection…then you are faced with a choice. You can join Jesus Christ by being baptized and becoming a Christian or you can choose to go your way. Jesus when accused of doing these miracles by the power of another told the people to make the tree either good…all for God or evil. He told them to make themselves good or fit for the kingdom of God or make themselves bad fir for themselves.

 

How can a man make himself good…do you want to be good not bad…yes or no? In order to be good we must be forgiven by God who is the source of Good and Holy. Have you ever lied…stole…murdered…coveted another’s…neglected your dad or mom…you ever said God’s name wrong…ever worshipped an idol…committed adultery… then you need forgiveness from God…if you want to be good then do not do these things.

 

Jesus will reveal the truth to you and all you must do is what is good, right, and true. Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong or evil thing. Jesus will never ask you to lie or steal or anything evil. He will always ask you to do what is right nor wrong. His teachings are found in the New Testament of Christ…if you will agree to read the New Testament then Jesus will reveal the truth you need to know to you and you will find rest for your souls. So you can learn what is good right and true.

 

Jesus said…

Come unto Me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of Me (read the New Testament of Christ); for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:28-30.

 

Prayer

Father please grant us repentance where necessary and help us to learn of Jesus so we can discern what is good…right…and true…please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal us from our sinful ways so we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
