DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE?
WE BLEW IT!!!!
WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE ANYWAY TO TELL GOD WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO DO IT?
IT IS JUST TOO MUCH, WE ARE NOT POPULAR ANE NEVER ACCEPTED IF WE PREACH. MUST WE PRATICE EVERYTHING IN THE BIBLE? DO WE HAVE TO BE REJECTED, SOCIETY WILL NEVER TAKE US BACK AGAIN, CAN’T WE JUST BE DIFTERS OR HOBO’S ON THE STREET?
THE MINUTE YOU TRY TO FIGURE OUT THE LORD’S PLANS IN YOUR OWN WAY, YOU MIGHT AS WELL QUIT BECAUSE IT WILL NEVER WORK.
GENESIS 6:5-7
When the Lord saw how wicked everyone on earth was and how evil their thoughts were all the time, he was sorry that he had ever made them and put them on the earth. He was so filled with regret that he said, “I will wipe out these people I have created, and also the animals and the birds, because I am sorry that I made any of them.”
DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE BY PUTTING ADAM AND EVE IN THE GARDEN WHERE THEY MADE THEIR OWN CHOICE (GENESIS 6), WHAT ABOUT TODAY, WE ALL DO WHAT WE WANT, SAY WHAT WE WANT SO WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE US?
GALATIANS 6:8
If you plant in the field of your natural desires, from it you will gather the harvest of death; if you plant in the field of the Spirit, from the Spirit you will gather the harvest of eternal life.
WAS IT A MISTAKE WHEN MOSES (EXODUS 2) KILLED AN EGYPTIAN AND HAD TO FLEE FOR HIS LIFE, LIVING FOR FORTY YEARS IN THE WILDERNESS LEARNING TO BE A HUMBLE SHEPHERD. WHAT ABOUT TODAY WE KILL PEOPLE FOR THE FUN OF IT.
2 CORINTHIANS 5:21
Christ was without sin, but for our sake God made him share our sin in order that in union with him we might share the righteousness of God.
DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN HE ALLOWED SAUL TO BECOME KING OF ISRAEL (1 SAMUEL) CONSIDERING THE WAY SAUL TURNED OUT? WHAT ABOUT TODAY, IS GOVERNMENT NOT A FAILURE?
EPHESIANS 5:11-12
Have nothing to do with the worthless things that people do, things that belong to the darkness. Instead, bring them out to the light. (12 It is really too shameful even to talk about the things they do in secret.)
DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN HE LET DAVID FALL FOR BATHSHEBA (2 SAMUEL 15), BOY LET US NOT GO INTO THAT DEPARTMENT, MOST MARRIAGES TODAY FALL APART BECAUSE OF THE LUST AND PORN, WANTING WHAT WE CANNOT HAVE.
LEV 20:10
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife or with his neighbour’s wife, both he and the woman must be put to death for their adultery.
AND WHAT OF SAMSON, (JUDGES 14-16), WHAT A BAD EXAMPLE HE WAS, LONG HAIR, ALWAYS RUNNING AFTER THE WOMEN, GETTING INTO FIGHTS AND DRINKING LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW, JOKING AROUND, GAMBLING MONEY AWAY, AM L TALKING ABOUT SOME OF YOU!
WOULD IT NOT HAVE BEEN MORE RESPECTABLE FOR JESUS TO BE BORN IN A PALACE WITH ALL THE HONOUR AND PRAISE OF SOCIETY INSTEAD OF A DIRTY BARN FLOOR, WOULD IT NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER FOR HIM TO LIVE IN LUXURY? DID JESUS ALWAYS HAVE A CHALLENGE THE RELIGIOUS ESTABLISHMENT, DESTROY TRADITIONS WHICH BY THE WAY LED HIM TO BE EXECUTED WITH COMMON CRIMINALS, HE HAD A REPUTATION OF BEING A COMPANION OF SINNERS, DRUNKS AND WHORES, HE WAS A LAW BREAKER, A DISTURBER OF THE PEACE, A FALSE PROPHET OF THE WRONG WAY. DIDN’T GOD MAKE A MISTAKE!
DID YOU HAVE TO BE A DROPOUT AND HANG OUT WITH THE LOWEST OF THE LOW. ONE CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR MAKING A FEW MISTAKES BUT GOING AGAINST REASON, LOGIC AND CUSTOM ARE WE NOT FOOLISH?
WHAT A RECKLESS CRAZY WAY FOR GOD TO SAVE HIS PEOPLE USING DAVID AND SAMSON, DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE OR WAS HE TRYING TO SHOW THAT HE CAN USE ANYTHING EVEN SOMEONE LIKE YOU. BY GIVING US ENCOURAGING EXAMPLES OF HIS SUCESSFUL FAILURES, PEOPLE WHO DARED TO TRUST HIM IN SPITE OF THEMSELVES AND GIVE GOD ALL THE GLORY.
GOD LOVES TO DO THINGS CONTRARY TO THE WAY WE THINK HE OUGHT TO DO THEM! IS THIS A MISTAKE! IS GOD WRONG? DID GOD FAIL? GOD MADE US IN HIS IMAGE AND OUT OF LOVE BUT WE DISCOVERED OUR FREE WILLAND USED IT TO SAY “NO” TO GOD THUS CREATING A HELL ON EARTH FOR OURSELVES. WE REBELLED, SO YET AGAIN I ASK “DID GOD MAKE A MISTAKE” ARE WE LIKE A COMPUTER WITH A CORRUPT OPERATING SYSTEM WHICH NEEDS TO BE RESET AND RE PROGRAMMED.
GOD WILL NOT FORCE US TO ACT AGAINST OUR FREE WILL WHAT HE DOES OFFER IS A CHANGE OF HEART, TO TURN FROM OUR SIN AND BELIEVE IN JESUS, THROUGH THE SACRAMENTS WE CAN HAVE A NEW HEART AND A NEW SPIRIT, WE CAN KNOW WHAT IS RIGHT AND HAVE THE POWER TO DO IT, TO KNOW WHAT IS WRONG AND HAVE THE STRENGTH TO AVOID IT, JESUS CAME AS ONE OF US AND DIED AS ONE OF US SO THAT HIS DIVINE POWER COULD CREATE A KIND OF BRIDGE TO THAT NEW WAY OF LIFE.
