A Time to Sow and a Time to Reap

Sometimes people lay responsibility on Christians that they cannot handle. They can’t handle them because they haven’t reached that level of maturity yet. Teachers must remember that God is Father and we are all children at different levels of growth.

A child should not be expected to think and behave as an adult. Father is the epitome of adulthood and Christians are all in different stages of development.

Listen Christians; if you don’t hear the truth in your spirit and see it with your spiritual understanding, you can’t do it. Don’t let teachers put a guilt trip on you for not being fully mature when you are only say 8 yrs. old in your understanding. One of the things Jesus wanted to accomplish was to set Christians free from guilt trips.

Hebrews 7: 24-27 But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

To make the matter clear, I am not talking about deliberate sin. Those who have come to God have repented of their ways and have covenanted with God to receive Him as Father to be trusted and obeyed. And He has covenanted with those who receive His salvation to be a loving, providing Father.

I John 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
