The world's religions have attempted to cast Almighty God into their faulty images, crafting an evil and destructive situational ethics. Because of God's immense long suffering, holding back on instantaneous consequences of sin, the presumptuous sinner assumes that God tolerates or accepts sin. The Protestant world mistakenly assumes that grace assures that there is no limit to the sin God will tolerate if we have done it in weakness. Jesus's blood, they feel, will cover these transgressions unconditionally regardless of circumstances. Sadly, many, thinking God is like they are, try to make God an accomplice, justifying their sins. In response to the old Protestant hymn, "Just as I am," why would He work to change us if He loved us just as we are? God demands that we put off the old man and put on the new man, submitting to His direction and holy and spiritual law, absorbing His Word which penetrates our deepest unseen motives. We must abandon even our deepest thoughts when they are not in alignment with His. God understands our deepest deceptions and hypocrisies but will not budge one inch for sin. To God's called-out saints, having the fear of Him in the depths of their nervous systems, He has given His precious Holy Spirit, namely the spirit of truth and the mind of Christ, enabling them to grow into the character and image of Almighty God. We are admonished not to fear the world, but instead fear the Lord exclusively. When the world's churches bow down to evil government mandates instead of trusting in God, the consequences prove deleterious and disastrous. God's people must take this to heart.
