If you are saved, you can’t sin
away Mercy, but you can sin away Grace and blessing.
Grace means= Favor & Privilege
Mercy means= Pity & Pardon
Can man SIN away salvation? I am not sure. It has been debated for many years.
But man can sin away Favor & Privilege
Man can cross a line, a fatal
line, when he does not allow God to deal with him, concerning
Sin. When we cross that fatal
line, God stops striving with us to repent of our sin.
When man does not allow God to
deal with him then God stops. Sad place to be.
Genesis 6:3
God was long suffering after mans fall and strives
with man before the world was flooded.
God was grieved, sorry that he had made man on the earth because of sin.
He waited 75 yrs, ( scholars have determined this was the time it took to build the Ark. "BacktoGenesis.com")
Before he had
enough of man’s determined sin and Godlessness.
They experienced Gods patience for 75
yrs. A very long time to consider repentance.
But their chance to repent was taken away with
the flood.
What was true before the flood
is also true since the flood.
God still stands between the
living and the dead, the blessed and the cursed.
God strives with man now,
through the Holy Spirit, but limits how much time he will plead.
How does God Strive?
God strives with us through his
Silence, the feeling that God is so very far away. We seek him (hopefully)
because we cant feel him or sense him.
God strives.
God strives with us through
conviction that is brought into our heart and mind.
An impression of the Holy Spirit
An outpouring of the Holy Spirit
God strives.
It’s shameful that God has to
plead with us about sin, when we ought to be the one pleading with God
about our sin.
Last but not least, Gods Word.
God Strives with us through the
preaching of the Gospel.
Sometimes the Spirit comes in on
the TV or the wave of a radio
But He does come and he has come
and he will come again through his word, the Bible.
No distance can weary him.
God Strives.
He, the Spirit comes to you and
says, “Child, who goes by the way of the grave,
a traveler to judgment day, then child of
eternity, ARE YOU READY TO RESPOND TO GOD?
The Holy Spirit is striving with
your heart. Why don’t you surrender?
Why don’t you say, “Forgive me
Lord…I surrender all.”
Restore to me the joy of my salvation.
Restore to me the blessing.
God Strives
Have you sinned the blessing of the Holy Spirit away?
The result of repentance is restoration!
Restoration is Grace because of Mercy!
Mercy is available because
GOD STRIVES
The door is still open
But will he close the door one day soon?
Will he grieve again?
Are you ready?
