Equity and Responsibility: What God owes you and what you owe God

Psalms 98:9 Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

Today, there is a lot of talk about equity. The world has changed its historic definition, equity is being just to everybody, to a new concept, we all deserve to receive much good from God. Truthfully, this is based in a wrong concept of our relationship with God. We confuse equality with equity.

Isaiah 1:21 How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness (equity) lodged in it; but now murderers.

Equity has to do with rectitude, what is correct and just. God has given different things to different people, and God considers this when He judges. Each person has a job to do, the best that they can do it. We should not desire the best of the world with little to no effort.

The Spiritual Battle

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

From creation, God has made the creature called “man” his favorite of all the creation of God. The reasoning behind this is because God made man “in His image.” One of the first events after His creation was the spiritual attack that Satan made against mankind by means of Eve. Sin entered the world, and with sin, death.

Men began to multiply, and from the sons of Adam and Eve, there was a spiritual distinction between men. Abel pleased God in how he worshipped Him, and Cain did not. Genesis 4:5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. 1 John 3:12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.

Cain was proud, and he could not put up with the fact that the offering of his brother was accepted, but his was not. Satan always confuses people to ignore the simple solution. The simple solution was for Cain to change, and for him to offer another sacrifice in the proper way, using one of his animals with its blood.

Suicide: A solution or something worse?

Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them; Ecclesiastes 12:1

The Rock group called “The Suicide Girls” make money by promoting the concept of suicide. In fact, there are fads among our youth like the Emus which also promote this concept among our youth as something great. These elements are floating around among our youth which glamorize suicide, such as a game where they hang themselves in their closet, and then remove the rope before actually dying to see how close to death they can get. Many times, they err and die before they can free themselves. The culture among these groups is a study of suicide to worship it and promote suicide pacts making it romantic and desirable.

ch44 Why we don’t charge for Ministering

Why we don’t charge for ministering

By David Cox

[ch44] v1 ©2011 www.coxtracts.com

Matt 10:8 freely ye have received, freely give.

Part of the instructions that Jesus gave his disciples was to not put the Gospel or ministering on a give-if-you-pay basis. Serving if somebody pays, and not if they don’t is to commercialize the ministry. The principle behind this phrase, “freely ye have received, freely give.” is that everything we do in the ministry for God should be free, and should be given irrespective of financial giving by who gets the benefit of that works. God designed the ministry in such a way that the spiritually mature brethren pay for things, they teach the financial obligation to give to the spiritually immature, but leave giving as a free-will activity free of coercion or pressure. What cannot be done that way, should not be done at all.

We should seek our reward from God in heaven. When a people are unthankful, and finances don’t come in to support something, it should be stopped.

The Vulgar and Foul-mouthed

1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither… nor revilers (foul-mouthed* or abusive person) … shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

*A foul-mouthed person is someone who reviles or verbally abuses other people, hurling aggressive, abusive foul language.

We are not saved because of the works we do, but sin is what sends us to hell. What defines a child of God is that he has submitted to His will (essentially repenting of his sins and receiving Jesus as his Savior), and lives seeking it throughout his life (Matthew 7:21-23). Obedience distinguishes salvation, defines it. The vulgar mouth is an abomination to God, so much so that there will be no revilers in heaven.

1 John 3:8He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. 10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.

Jan 3:3 Jezi reponn li: Sa m’ap di ou la a, se vre wi: Pesonn pa kapab wè Pèyi kote Bondye Wa a si li pa fèt yon dezyèm fwa. 4 Nikodèm di li: Ki jan yon nonm ki fin granmoun ka fèt yon dezyèm fwa? Li pa ka tounen nan vant manman l’, pou l’ fèt yon lòt fwa ankò. 5 Jezi reponn li: Sa m’ap di ou la a, se vre wi: Pesonn pa ka antre nan Peyi kote Bondye Wa a si li pa fèt nan dlo ak nan Sentespri. 6 Lachè soti nan lachè, lespri soti nan Lespri Bondye.

Jezi te anseye nesesite esansyèl pou yon nouvo nesans, ki se nesans espirityèl chak moun pou wè delivrans Bondye, epi lè yo mouri yo pral viv nan paradi nan syèl la avèk Bondye. Si ou pa fèt ankò, ou pral ale nan lanfè. Nesans sa a se yon chanjman espirityèl pou kòmanse yon relasyon ak Jezi (Sovè pou rachte). Ou fè li konfyans epi aksepte li kòm Sovè ou Si ou pa fèt ankò ou p’ap ale nan syèl la.
