Live by God's standards

Live by God's standards

SportsFaith Play of the day from the Ultimate Playbook!

Romans 5:13 To be sure, sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not charged against anyone’s account where there is no law.

I find this interesting. As believers, law didn't happen until God identified a problem that didn't honor Him. Sin happened first, then the law, then repentance then God's grace. As the law increased, God's grace increased as well. Today society is trying to do the reverse. As crime increases, and morals decline we start to reduce crime by... making more things legal and socially acceptable?!? Just because society says it's ok, doesn't make it so in God's eyes. The Holy Spirit will still let us know when something is wrong. God's grace is still abundant, but what is right is right. If the world wanted to 'reduce crime' and make murder legal, doesn't mean we should do it. Live life according to God's standards, not the worlds and have a blessed day!
