We often talk about what we will experience as Christians “someday.” But what we’re looking forward to isn’t just far off in the distance. It affects how we live today!
God’s heart for us is that we be sanctified, not just someday but today! Jesus makes us pure and clean so that Holy God lives in us today.
At the front lines of the battle between who we are in Christ and who we were before is this question, “Who’s in charge? My feelings or me?”
When we live by what we feel, we often over step and contribute to the pain and death in this world.
God is the ultimate justice-maker. Jesus endured the justice our sins deserve so we now stand right with God.
If we’re longing for the day when we live in a pure and holy place with God, why would we go back to impurity now? God’s given you His Holy Spirit so you can live the live God has called you to!11.8.20 Message from Cottage Grove
