When the full understanding of God's Grace becomes a reality in your
living, you will be inundated with religious rules and regulations of religious
people, that Paul names as, "fallen from grace"
people.
If there is
one thing that riles the wrath of the religionist, it is the far reaching effect
of God's amazing grace and love, they can't see God's Grace and Love "reaching
to the highest star or to the depth of the lowest hell." They cannot see it as
"unconditional." This wrath stirred in them may be due to the lack of God's
Grace and Love in their lives, and in the preaching of their perverted gospel of
mixed law and
grace.
From one side
of their mouth they will tell you that God is a God of love and grace...while
from the other side of the same mouth they say, BUT...both these statements come
from the same heart. A divided heart that speaks both good and evil...if the
Spirit of Christ is in that heart...this kind of talk should not happen. The
divided heart of the religionist will weep and pray for the sinner to come to
the alter for salvation, and in the same breath consign them to hell fire at a
future time if they do
not.
If you are a
grace living believer, never lose sight of the fact that the religious spirit of
the religionists ever seeks to bring you into bondage of religious ideologies,
notions, rules and traditions that would regulate, control, and dispense God's
love and grace only to those they deem worthy...the sinner that they can
convince to accept salvation, as they, from their divided heart, heap the wrath
of God on the sinner who don't. You live in a religious world that equates
God's "grace and love" with with an act of obedience to the keeping of religious
rules...conditional love...while God's love is unconditional. You will always be
the target of the grace-plus or the graceless people who, enraged by your
acceptance and understanding of God's amazing grace in you, will condemn and
accuse you of being a
heretic.
But don't
fret...Jesus was hated and ultimately crucified by overzealous religious people
for being graceful, loving and being a friend of sinners. This kind of
opposition from the religious self-righteous assures you of the reality of His
life within you.
