Thoughts at will....

So I thought I would just get on here and really just say or speak what my heart is screaming. Its really easy to go through this christian walk with a mindset that you have to earn your salvation. Let me put it this way so so so many of us can find ourselves getting discouraged to the point of wanting to quit because of our screw ups and mess ups, because as christians we hate when we mess up at least we do if we are truly seeking after God. So what happens is we fall, fail, screw up and quit or walk around with this defeated mindset. What I would tell you is we must understand the True Gospel. The true gospel of Jesus Christ. He came lived our perfection in every aspect of his life being God in the flesh, took on all the imperfections and the weight of sin for all of mankind and died a death that he didnt have to in order for us to be justified not by any of our works but by the blood of Jesus Christ. The fact of the matter is we are dirty and sinful and we are always going to be, that is until we pass on and go home. I dont mean to qoute guys you may not know but a really legit christian rapper named Street Pastor says it like this "I am a nobody till Im up in heaven lookin down at my old body". So with that being said we and i definetly use the word we cant let our sin to get in the way of our worship. Its like a wise man once told me. This sin should show you how filthy you are and reveal to you the fact that you need a saviour. It should push you closer to the cross of Christ. because the beautiful thing about the gospel is not we do and we get. Its He did and we get. Christ is so awesome. This definetly does not mean that this is our justification to sin. Its like Paul said in Romans 6 "shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound, absolutely NOT!" but what we must understand is he is speaking of a heart that is unrepented a heart thats not weaping and praying and running to Christ. But when our sin breaks us and leads us to him that repentance. and Christ dwells. And thats the Gospel. Be encouraged keep fighting and keep pushing toward the cross at all cost. Let nothing get in the way of Jesus. NOT EVEN YOURSELF! Love you guys
