The Point of No Return!!!


Listen Later

Have you reached the point of no return in your walk with Christ? The point where you realize, wow my life has changed and so have I and now I no longer have to worry. I no longer have to be subjected to life per usual. Well if you haven't come to the point of no return that just means you may have not started your journey walk with God just yet, you might have just started, or you have been doing it so long you have become complacent! This is life! We can't be so far away from where God brought us from to the point we don't think that one move couldn't land us 10 steps back. We don't have to move in fear but we do need to move in the mindfulness that we don't deserve anything we are given. This gift of life is just that the gift of life from God! There is an alternative to life and that is death. You can experience both walking talking and breathing and not living truly to the best that God has for us! God first loved us even when he knew what we would be. So this should give us some peace and freedom understanding that we will make mistakes and bad decisions but we don't have to allow folks to count us out and surely we don't need to give up on ourselves or our relationship with God because we messed up. Did you know that God doesn't love us anymore now walking with him then he did when we were dead in our sins? Why is that you ask? Well I'll tell you why! Gods love is unconditional and he loved us when we were sinners or he wouldn't have given his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS for our lives. Even when we get saved and our lives have changed and we slip up God said....
Matthew 18:11-14
11 [a]For the Son of man came to save [[b]from the penalty of eternal death] that which was lost.
12 What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray and gets lost, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountain and go in search of the one that is lost?
13 And if it should be that he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not get lost.
14 Just so it is not the will of My Father Who is in heaven that one of these little ones should be lost and perish.
Romans 8:33
33. Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect [when it is] God Who justifies [that is, Who puts us in right relation to Himself? Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach those whom God has chosen? Will God, Who acquits us?]
See the thing is we can't even judge ourselves because we are bought with a price not as slaves but Jesus calls us his friends. We are no longer bondsman tied by link and chain to our sin!!!
Romans 6:6-7
6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin— 7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
Another point of no return: Jesus foretold the disciples what they would do!
Mark 14:27-50
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
27 And Jesus said to them, You will all fall away this night [that is, you will be caused to stumble and will begin to distrust and desert Me], for it stands written, I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.
28 But after I am raised [to life], I will go before you into Galilee.
29 But Peter said to Him, Even if they all fall away and are caused to stumble and distrust and desert You, yet I will not [do so]!
30 And Jesus said to him, Truly I tell you, this very night, before a cock crows twice, you will utterly deny Me [disclaiming all connection with Me] three times.
31 But [Peter] said more vehemently and repeatedly, [Even] if it should be necessary for me to die with You, I will not deny or disown You! And they all kept saying the same thing.
32 Then they went to a place called Gethsemane, and He said to His disciples, Sit down here while I pray.
33 And He took with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be [a]struck with terror and amazement and deeply troubled and depressed.
34 And He said to them, M
