The Sin of Withholding
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. (James 4:17 KJV Bible, Thomas Nelson (c) 2016) When we do what GOD tells us not to do, this is a sin of commission. When we fail to do what GOD says, this is a sin of omission. A certain ruler told JESUS that he had kept the commandments since his youth. JESUS told the ruler to sell his possessions, and give to the poor. The ruler went away grieved, because he was rich. (see Luke 18:18-27) People matter more than things. Let us hold loosely material wealth (things), and hold tightly the value of others, and meeting needs, as we are able, by GOD's grace and leading. Thank GOD for JESUS. Amen.
Do you know JESUS as Savior and Lord? Receive Him into your life Today. You may say the following prayer, or you may use your own words: Thank You, Father GOD, for sending Your Son JESUS to die for the sins of the world. Thank You, JESUS, for dying on the Cross for me. I ask that You forgive me of my sin. Please come into my life. Help me to live for You. Thank You Father GOD for saving me. In JESUS' Name. Amen.
If you said the prayer, and meant it in your heart, Welcome to the Family of GOD.
Continue in The Lord. In all that you say and do, let others see JESUS in you.
