Crossing the Line in Grace Genesis Episode 4 Season 7 Pastor John Harris 135

  • Summary

  • "Crossing the Line in Grace" - Episode 4:  We are going through the Word of God, examining where God drew lines and His creation crossed them.  In this lesson, we study some of them in Genesis. Also we look at I Cor 3:16, 17   A clear example is I Thessalonians 4:6-8, in the context of God's grace commandments to the Body of Christ: "That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit."   If a brother despises another brother and tries to defraud that brother of what God has given him....read it, God is the avenger of all such. AVENGER!....God actively brings judgment in some fashion to the offending brother. You don't want to find yourself in this position. Such a brother has crossed a line with God, just like a child in your family attacking one of your other children, in love you step in, but the offending child receives condemnation. Yes, condemnation....Rom 5:1 is speaking of no condemnation from God if you are walking after the Spirit...this child is totally in his flesh. We will look at examples of the types of condemnation that the Lord brings. In reality it is FOR the wayward child, to try to snap them back to being obedient....because we all will stand before the judgment seat of Christ, the bema seat, and receive for what we have done in this body, whether it be good or bad (Rom 14:10, 2 Cor 5:10)   We live in a time, either in 2 Timothy 3 or fast approaching, when such things must be understood. Men shall be lovers of their own selves, traitors, false accusers, despisers of those who are good, and such like. If you are looking at another brother or sister and feeling such things, pray that God changes your heart before you cross the line. I have seen it happen more times than I wish to share. God calls us to love one another, to think on these things ( Phil 4:8), not evil surmisings and the like.   As we go through this study we will look at cases throughout the ages and in grace that scripture reveals when man or individuals have crossed the line that God has drawn. It never is experientially good for the one that crosses the line...even in grace.
