"Are YOU sinless?" "Have YOU seen anyone perfect?" These questions do not come from the heart of faith, but rather of doubt. They come from an evil heart of unbelief. An evil heart because it holds in bondage to sin the man who has such a heart, for that which is not of faith is sin. Might well the question have been asked before the fact, "Have YOU seen a man raised from the dead?" "Has ANYONE ever felled the walls of a great city by marching around them?" "Have YOU heard of a 90 year old woman giving birth?" The carcasses of ancient Israel now blend with the barren sands of the wilderness. Their story is one of unbelief. As we stand once again upon the borders of heavenly Canaan, leave the doubtful questions behind. Has anyone ever slain the giants of sin? Why, yes, let me tell you the story of Jesus, of Enoch, of Elijah, of Paul, ... and, "if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end," the story of YOU and ME. "Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into His rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them:but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it." (Hebrews 4:1-2) -- LF, admin.
