Are You Willing To Weep; Christ Did
Looking unto Christ the author and finisher of our faith will cause us to cry too for the souls of man. Are we with Christ or are we not? What have light with darkness? When the darkness comes it takes out the light. When the darkness comes it dims the eyesight where we don’t see right. Darkness kills the understanding of man; it fills man’s heart with misunderstanding. Then there is a wonder as to why am I not being understood? When we tread on dangerous grounds we don’t understand ourselves. How do we get to this place of darkness that takes the weep out of our hearts?
The weep I am talking about is the Spirit of God that the mind and heart is conscious of. Christ understood the weakness of man. He through Jesus so cried for us to be understanding of what He had come to do for us. To understand and be understood is two different things. We don’t really understand the ratifications of our sin. God can deliver man from whatever the sin is because He sent His Son Jesus Christ to redeem us from the bondage of sin. So if He did this for us why don’t we reverence him as Lord? It is God that converts the hearts of men. He transforms us, turn us around and realize our worth. What greater love; are you willing to weep for the salvation of man? When are we going to realize our worth as Christians? In this world the world system is to steal, kill and destroy; but God. I weep for the system and all those that are caught up in the system. The Church has even leaned to the way of the world; God forbid!
Did not Jesus weep for the Church that it would lean not to the world but through the Church the World would conform to its Creator? Nobody wants to take responsibility for anything, anyone, or any mishap that happens; but God. The world is addicted to greed. The Church is addicted to greed. Who will deliver us from this darkness if not Christ? The Church has lost a level of respect among the sinners because of the ego trip it has been on. This is the Church of the World; a loose Church. The addiction for the things we were warned to stay away from in Matthew 6:33 have come front and center in man’s heart and they are making choices. But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these other things shall be added unto you. The Church has crossed the line. From the teachings of Jesus we learn that the kingdom of heaven is spiritual and unworldly in nature, supernatural and heavenly in its origin, powers, blessings, aims, and ends. It is a kingdom free alike from national and ceremonial limitations, working by its own laws and destined in the end to embrace all people.
All man wants to do is love and be loved. All God wants is for us to love Him unconditionally. Our choices make us Godly or Worldly. Man has forgotten that the conception of the universe is twofold, the heavens and the earth. It is both universal and everlasting. Christ came in the flesh to reveal it fully to men; comes in the Spirit to guide and maintain it and will come in glory to perfect it. This should be man’s cry every day that God’s will be done in the earth as it is in heaven. We are to bring heaven down to earth every day not only when we want something. This is not really love.
God will not destroy us because the leaders of our country have erred. The cause of disruption and schism lay deeper than that on the outside of man. It grows more and more every day and it is called sin. Sin is conceived and worked on in the heart and mind, but it’s done in the body against God. The whole duty of man is to fear God and keep all of his Commandments; let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter. We are crying about the wrong things and it’s time to get it right and cry, weep for the souls of man.
God is to be remembered; Ecclesiastes 12:1 remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them. God has entrusted children in the hands of parents that is to teach the children from day one. Rather we know it or not they understand. We are to lead them to Christ, thereby teaching them the way of God. Once they reach an age as King Agrippa did it’s hard to let go of what they have attained. In Act 26 Agrippa replied to Paul saying almost thou persuaded me to become a Christian. Almost is not good enough! Paul as Jesus suffered many things at the hand of men but if we suffer likewise as a Christian we should not feel ashamed, but in Christ name let us glorify God.
We may plant the Word, someone else waters it but it is God that gives the increase. Every man will receive his reward according to his own labor. Therefore let every man prove his own work. We are God’s workmanship created in Christ unto good works which God hath before ordained that we should walk in good works and our work is fruitful. We must increase in the knowledge of God that we will weep for this dying world. We first must be righteously fit that we consider each other to provoke love and not hate. God will fashion and make us fit for His use. He makes us perfect in every good work to do his will, working in us that which is well pleasing unto Him.
We must be doers of the Word and not hearers only for our works do follow us to heaven. Revelation 22:14 John the revelator said blessed are they that do his Commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Cry, Weep, or laugh but we are leaving here one day and we will live again somewhere. Job 20:4-5 knowest thou not this of old since man was placed upon earth that the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment. There is a way that seem right to man but the end thereof are the way of death. Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom. He that loves pleasure shall be a poor man for he seeks after things that does not profit in the kingdom of God. We are not to walk in our own ways or boast in our own heart to cheer ourselves. God will bring these things into judgment and we will not be free. Remove sorrow from our hearts and rejoice in God. Put away evil from our flesh, we won’t be children always that don’t understand. Rise up and hear God, love Him and He will love us back. We are to set our affection on things above and not in the earth that causes us to be worldly.
Jesus weeps for us still today as He wept when He walked in the earth for the ways of man are continually evil and their hearts are far from God. He was vexed in His Spirit at the ways of man. He wept out of His Spirit; are we willing to weep for the souls of man to be saved? When we do then and only then will we know that we are spiritually ready to make a difference in the earth for God.
