Very few people can honestly say that
they have no clue as to what God wants from them. Most, if not all, people have a moral code
they live by that originates in God.
They know what they ought to do and what they ought not to do. Now, whether or not they do what they know is
right or not is another story. Everyone
makes choices of whether or not they will do what they believe to be
right. God holds everyone accountable
for their choices.
The more knowledge we have of God, the
more responsible we are for abiding by His laws. Knowledge of God raises the bar of
responsibility. No one can claim
ignorance when it comes to living in obedience to righteousness. All righteousness flows from Calvary.
Jesus
is our righteousness. He alone can make
us acceptable to God. He alone can stand
between God and man and bring us together.
Jesus clearly has shown us what is right and wrong. Without His righteousness, no one will see
God. Jesus is our shield from God's
wrath. He makes it possible for us to be
good enough to be in God's presence.
But, in order for us to found to be righteous before God, we must
confess our sins to Jesus and forsake them.
We must believe that He died for our sins, was buried and rose from the
dead on the third day and is now seated in heaven at God's right hand.
You know what God wants from you. He wants you to accept Christ as your Savior
and live life in Him. It is what is
right before God and all who live in Christ will never go wrong. If you haven't turned to Jesus for the
forgiveness of your sins yet, you are making a choice right now as to whether
you will or not and God holds you accountable for your choice.
The right thing to do is to take God and
your relationship with Him seriously. He
commands you to be holy before Him.
Nothing else will do.
