2/1/16 HATE SIN NOT SINNERS

HATE SIN NOT SINNERS
Guess who wants you to be angry with sinners.
That's right, Satan. (aren't you glad God loved sinners?)

Guess who wants you to be angry with sin.
That's right, God. (funny thing about Satan, he wants you to love sin.)

Guess who wants you to exude love and not anger toward your neighbor.
Right again (provided you said God).

Remember, we are sent to be WITNESSES, not policemen or judges or prosecutors. We can love the sinner and hate the sin, but they need to see it in us, ALL THE TIME.

If the people of God, don't convey the message of God, how are the ungodly going to perceive God, receive God and please God?
That's right, THEY AIN'T.

Romans 10:13-15
(13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
(14) How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
(15) And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
