Spiritual Adulterers





Many Christian believers are spiritual
adulterers. To be a child of God means to be a follower of Jesus
Christ, to be faithful unto Him, to obey Him and to live our lives to
please Him. We must live according to His Commandments and do what is
pleasing to Him, but many believers run after people. They are
unfaithful to Jesus Christ. Most of them are not following Jesus.
They follow after their own mind, and they follow after preachers and
other people. They seek the advice of men, but they do not follow
Jesus. They don't go to Jesus.
There's only one way to have eternal
life and that is to obey the gospel of Jesus Christ. The gospel of
Jesus Christ are His words, the words that He spoke, as they will
also recorded in the gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If we take
seriously the words of Jesus and we obey Him; we repent and are
baptized in water and we seek Him with all our heart, then He will
reveal himself to us. He will come and dwell in us and with us. He
will give His Spirit in us to guide us, but we have to be faithful to
Him. We have to follow Him. We have to trust Him. As soon as we start
following after people, seeking the advice of others, we are
fornicating, then we become adulterers with the world, become
adulterers because we are unfaithful to Jesus Christ, and adulterers
will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
We have to obey the gospel of Jesus
Christ and we have to follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit as the
Apostle Paul also wrote in 1st Thessalonians chapter 1 verse 7. He
wrote:"When the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with his
mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing contribution to those who do
not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord
Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction away from
the presence of God and from the glory of His power, when He comes to
be glorified in his saints on that day, to be marveled at among all
who have believed."
Now many people believe. Many Christian
believers say they believe but they do not believe the gospel of
Jesus Christ. They do not believe neither obey His words. They
believe a different gospel. The words of Jesus are the words of
eternal life. Jesus Christ is the way and the truth and the life. He
speaks and His sheep hear His voice. They listen to Him and they
follow Him. They stay faithful to Him. They do not adulterate. They
do not listen to other people. They follow Jesus. They seek His
guidance and they seek His approval. They do not seek the approval of
each other and that of other Christians, other believers. They do not
seek the approval of the world. They seek the approval of Jesus. They
are faithful to Him, because they seek to please Him. He is their
Lord and their Master. They are not spiritual adulterers. They are
faithful to the Master.
Are we faithful to Jesus Christ? Do we
get our guidance and our teaching, our advice, from Him? Do we follow
Jesus, or are we spiritual adulterers? We must stay focused on Jesus,
seek Him, pray, wait on Him. Walk with Him. Listen to him obey Him
and follow Him every day until the very end.
May Jesus bless you.
