Where do you stand?
Isn't it odd - how so many people will shun the real truth for some fairy tale and even support it even when it is found to be a False?
The odd people in the society get all bent out of shape when anyone says things they do not agree with - But just have anyone else dare to exercise their God given right to choose and express their beliefs and all Hell breaks loose - Rather one way system to look at things?
I always choose the truth and let what is popular catch up!
This is not a judgment because through certain people's actions they have judged themselves!
Like when you know you have done something wrong; then you will make excuses or tell lies to deny it - thus you have judged yourself wrong!
Which is where many find themselves today!
While people can only look upon the outward person and put their own limited ideas into play - God looks upon the heart of each person; and I am sure Tim Tebow is on the winning side!
He's doing what he's suppose to do. Looking to GOD !
No one can ever be justified in the sight of God based on his own righteousness which comes through any acts of holiness. Because there is not any actions no matter how honorable the intention that will make us holy in God's sight - it is just not possible!
MATTHEW 22:8-14
In this time, it was customary for the host
to provide their guests with wedding garments to wear to the wedding. It
was an insult of the highest degree to refuse to wear the clothing
provided since the guests were brought in directly from the highways and
streets.
The wedding garment speaks of the righteousness of Christ that God so graciously provides for all who accept His invitation into the kingdom.
It must be put on by both good and bad (Mt. 22:10).
Right standing before the Holy God is not to be achieved in keeping the law; because no human can on their own keep all the laws - that is why only the humble trust in the person and work of Jesus Christ is the answer!
No one, who is trusting in his own righteousness, can have the benefit of Christ's righteousness.
The only righteousness that gives men a relationship with God is the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD, and it comes freely through faith in Jesus Christ.
The way we obtain this righteousness is by putting faith in what Christ has done for us. When we place our faith in Christ, then the righteousness that Jesus obtained by His faith becomes ours.
Through faith in Jesus, we can receive the very righteousness of God as a gift. God's righteousness is infinitely more in quality and quantity than man's puny righteousness. No one can ever be justified in the sight of God based on his own righteousness which comes through any acts of human holiness.
One must have God's righteousness which only comes through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior. Paul said in
Philippians 3:9, "And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith."
*** This is "the righteousness of God."
It is the Absolute Truth and Way to all Righteousness!
