Luke 13:1-17. Most of the western world lives in a constant state of comparison. For decades, we have been herded into groups by the dogs of intolerance (in the name of tolerance), hate, greed, and power-hungry. We have become a divided and divisive culture of us versus them at every level of society. However, we will all stand before God and be judged by His standard. Not an arbitrary ideology created by man. The kingdom of heaven is not promised to the prettiest, the famous, or who has the most followers, the most money, is the best athlete, or has the most power. We will all be judged by the standard of divine holiness. But here is the rub. No one can meet God's standard. We can try with all our self-imposed self-righteousness religion and will still be found wanting. So what do we do? Repent of our sins. We must change our minds about sin, feel remorse about our sin, and be converted by faith in Jesus Christ to live a new life loyal to God. Failure to do so leads to destruction. Don't worry about the person next to you. Stop comparing your sins to the sins of others and turn away from your sins today.
