DON’T LET THIS BE OTHERS FATE…SHARE THE GOSPEL
Mathew 27: 45-50
45 From noon until three in the afternoon darkness came over all the land. 46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).
47 When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “He’s calling Elijah.”
48 Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge. He filled it with wine vinegar, put it on a staff, and offered it to Jesus to drink. 49 The rest said, “Now leave him alone. Let’s see if Elijah comes to save him.”
50 And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.
If you have sin in your life and have not accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior God cannot look on you. He has to turn His back on you. Because of His holiness He CANNOT look on sin. When you die and you find out that you did not make it to heaven…you might say this:
God, God, why have you forsaken me?”
And then you might:
Cry out in a loud voice.
As I was reading the account of Jesus death….I was stuck at the effects of God not being able to look at Jesus Christ as He took our horrible sins on to Himself. God cannot look on sin. The results of sin is death and Jesus removed spiritual death from anyone who would turn from their sin and accept Him as their Savior.
He was at His last minutes of life after being tortured for days and hanging on a cross for hours and He should have had no strength to yell because of physically weakened condition….but after He asked God why He had forsaken Him….after God looked away from Him so He could carry our sins….He yelled really loud. I can’t say for sure but the thought of God turning away would probably make one scream out in sheer agony! WHO WOULD WANT TO BE WITHOUT GOD FOR EVEN A SECOND!!!!!!!!! Not even Jesus!
The second after the unsaved die….I know they will scream out in sheer agony when they realize the terror they face forever because they didn’t make the right choice when they had the chance.
This is my true purpose for writing my blog, this is what I pray for and cry before the Lord. I pray for my unsaved loved ones and friends. I pray for your loved ones and friends. If you’ve never accepted Jesus…I pray for you too!
I had cancer….I should be dead….but God spared my life…..so I could have fun? make a lot of money? party? be a jet setter?….There is nothing wrong with those things in general….but for me….I want the life I have…dedicated to God and my family…..and spending time pleading for souls who need Jesus.
Of all the religions in the world Christianity is the only one who has a God who became a human and died and came back to life with historical evidence to back up the claims. It’s the only religion that Just the name of our God evokes such anger and hatred. Why so much resistance?
For me Christianity is very real and I feel that’s why people feel threaten by it. If there were no power in it… nobody would be giving it a second thought.
So what can be done about convincing people otherwise? Nothing! People will think what they want…but…The Holy Spirit Is present on earth and He is the one who will attempt to contact that person’s soul or spirit of the truth of the gospel. If we…my fellow Christians are available God will use us to reach them.
So…I don’t want my family members or friends or your family members or friends to cry out in agony because they didn’t make the right choice.
Heavenly Father, Give me the wisdom and discernment to know when you want me to share the good news of Jesus Christ with others. Help me to create unique ways to spread the gospel. In Jesus name…Amen
To my brothers and sisters in Christ…be encouraged because:
Jude 1:24-25
To him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— 25 to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.

Where does it say in the Bible that God cannot look upon sin? Where does it say that God turned his back on Jesus? Jesus asked why he forsaken him because he felt like he was alone before death. It doesn’t say God couldn’t see him. If God can’t look on sin then he must be blind. All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. It’s because of Jesus death that our sins are forgiven. Can you explain where it says that God doesn’t see sin? I have sincerely been looking for this – I have heard people say and repeat this but I’ve never actually found that.

Habakkuk 1:13 Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing. Why then do you tolerate the treacherous? Why are you silent while the wicked swallow up those more righteous than themselves?
Psalms 34:16 but the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth.
Hello Rhonda, Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your observations about this topic. Yes, there is no exact scripture that says specifically about God turning His back, but the bible does say He is to pure to look at evil. It says the face of the Lord (back turning in my opinion) is against those who do evil. When a person rejects God and when they die they are judged right away and they will never be in heaven with Him. This is why I said, and others have said God turns His back on evil. Since God is holy, He can’t accept one if they deny His Son Jesus, who is the only one who has the power to wash away a person original sin. Only the righteous would be pure enough to see God face to face.
If you read my whole blog, you will know my main point was that people would accept Jesus Christ as their Savior and would be able to be with God in glory forever.
To reject Jesus, the only one who can save a person, is an unpardonable sin.
Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
I pray you will get clarity on the purpose of this particular blog. God bless you, Rhonda!

Hi John…So sorry you’re going through so much. I suffered as a kid too. There is a way to get blessing from God. We can’t demand that He does stuff for us. But when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, when we humble ourselves and bow down at His feet and honor Him and serve Him I tell you he will bless you. Our suffering should have nothing to do with how we feel about Him. We have to love Him because He loved us first and He is due that honor no matter what is going on in our lives. God never said we would have an easy or perfect life. Life is hard. When you accept Jesus…the Holy Spirit comes to live inside of us. He guide us and strengthens us. He reveals truths from the bible so that we can understand. These bible truths is our secret help in trials and it helps us to know God. Then we build a relationship with him. Then when we call on him for help he will be there. I pray john that you will turn to the word of God…that you can pray and have a close relationship with God and that you will be blessed! In Jesus name…amen… Hang in there!

How do I know if I am guilty of blasphemy? I did and said some things very badly against God and I do not know what to do. I beg for undeserved mercy and forgiveness! I can’t make myself fully believe in Jesus! I want to believe but doubts I have no control over fill me. Bad things God could stop but doesn’t keeps tormenting me. Allowing the devil to cause such pain. Not even talking to us directly Himself… Things and much more bothering me to the point it messes with my faith. I pray for God to take it away.. It was causing me to fall under great depression and I turned to drugs and turned my back on God. Then I continued to use knowing it was wrong choosing drugs over God. I feel such an uneasy feeling now. An empty feeling and overwhelming fear that I’m going to burn in hell forever and ever because of this human brain and this flesh that I wish I had never been born into from the beginning.. I want a chance to live for God. I want to do His work for Him and I need to know my purpose in life. I’m so afraid that God has turned from me for good…. ..I pray constantly on the inside but afraid it is falling on deaf ears because of the terrible decisions I’ve made for far too long now… How can I tell if God is finished with me or not? And What is blasphemy?

Hi Tracy…One is guilty of blasphemy when one rejects Jesus Christ. God is not finished with you. You have a chance right up to the day you take your last breath and die. Accept Jesus in you life, repent of your sin and really believe in your heart. Then read and study the bible like crazy because it’s God’s words to you. That’s it Tracy. Don’t overthink this. Find a good bible teaching church and you will be OK.

I need a friend. I have been cut off from the vine by the Lord. Invoking proverbs 1:20-1:32, He has decided to turn his back on me and make me pay for every sin I did not repent from. As a result I suffer from brain damage, and I am unable to think for the most part. I only think when I write and when I speak, and the quality is poor. I have lost my ability to imagine and to remember. This is the most difficult time of my life and has been for the past three years. Now I am only 36, and am looking at continuing with this pain for the rest of my life. I have lost everything because I was a careless fool. Now for the rest of my life, I will pay. The irony is that I was such a brilliant thinker. I actually have two degrees from university in the fields of mathematics and physics. But more than a brilliant thinker , I was unwise and that cost me everything. I know we serve a merciful God, but God has decided to turn his back on me because of my sin. I do not know what to do anymore. I see a minister three times a week, who is convinced that God has not turned his back on me. The truth though is that I have not felt the Holy Spirit speak to me for a very long time. I am at a loss. I love the Lord, or so I thought, and now my mistake has sent me to hell. I do not ask for much but for friendship, and the ability to discuss this very serious matter. I think I am right.

I’m sorry you have been through so much. God is a loving God. If you sin…sincerely ask God to forgive you and Jesus will forgive you… period. God does not continually punish us. If when we sinned and became sick or disabled then that was a result of what we did and we have to deal with the consequences of our actions. If we believe that God removed the Holy Spirit from us and makes us pay for past sins then the whole bible is a lie. You either believe the bible or you don’t.
Our lives do not depend on our feelings but what is in the bible. God never makes us feel condemned and if we do…that is NOT God. The ball is in you court….read and believe. Read the bible intensely and believe and pray….that is your only help and hope. Deal with God directly praying and reading your bible. Humble yourself before the Lord. God bless you and keep you.

You posted this comment in July. I am wondering have things changed?
The battle is for our minds…. We are told to renew our minds. We do that by His word. Don’t feel alone in feeling like you’ve been in the dessert. Even seasoned Christians have dry seasons..
Numbers 6:24-26
24 “The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
26 The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.”’
