¹⁷ “Yet your people say, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ But it is their way that is not just. ¹⁸ If a righteous person turns from their righteousness and does evil, they will die for it. ¹⁹ And if a wicked person turns away from their wickedness and does what is just and right, they will live by doing so. ²⁰ Yet you Israelites say, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ But I will judge each of you according to your own ways.”-Ezekiel 33:17-20

Clearly, God is Just. We may not always like that He is Just. After all it would be so much easier if God would let us do whatever we want, lol. But that’s not the way it is… 🙂

It says in the New Testament that we “are Saved by Faith”. And that’s true. But if we have “faith” in Jesus Christ, then we believe in Him. And if we believe in Him, as a friend once told me, than we need to believe and do what He said. (see James 2: 14-26 – “Faith without works is Dead“)

“Love your God with your whole heart and soul, and love each other as yourselves.” No easy task, but that pretty much covers it all! And the Holy Spirit is here to help us do that; He’s our Helper and we just need to ask Him 🙂

But if we do believe in Jesus, we will believe and do as He said, today.
