Hi -
Some
may wonder why some Christians don’t watch horror movies and some do.
Or why some Christians won’t go to certain “clean” events or why some
Christians drink wine and others don’t. The answer is if the Holy Spirit
tells us NOT to do WHATEVER and we do it anyway, it is sin.
I don’t drink alcohol or wine. Actually, when I was in the world, I wasn’t a liquor drinker - only
partook a few times - did wine and beer a bit more but not much… I know
of another Christian who views horror movies. Years ago, our Lord told
me NOT to watch horror movies. So for me - it is sin.
Years
ago, on a Saturday, our Lord told me to stay home to commune with Him.
Well, my close Christian friend called and invited me to go out with her
and to spend some time at her house. I rationalized it and thought
something like, “She’s a strong Christian and what could be wrong with
going out with and with her to her home?” Our Lord had already told me
what to do that day… Long story short…I disobeyed…and while she and I
were out, our Lord allowed something to occur that hurt my heart deeply.
As soon as it happened, He told me that He allowed it because He had
told me to stay home…
Yes, the Holy Bible tells us what is sin…but also the Holy Spirit tells us what is sin…
Woe to us if we disobey, especially as the time gets shorter…

DANCE OF FIRE
POETRY: DANCE OF FIRE
Flames of fire dance joyfully as dreams of fervor conjure up images of red hot passion for the gusto of life.
Sizzle, spark, explode -
Fireballs light up the sky. Wow! a thunder flash with a clap -
The flames are vivid with the awesome glow of orange colors blended with yellow highlights that accent the blaze.
This display is the bomb torched with a rocket plan. Such rapture has lit our fire. We are dynamite on this journey.
Come on fire, fall on us. Pour your liquid potency. Ignite our souls that we may be engulfed with magnified intensity.
Blow up our hearts. Dance with us....

Hi Sandra,
ReplyDeleteRomans chapter 14 has helped me deal with the question and principle you addressed in this post. You're certainly right. There are sins the bible is addresses very specifically and there are others that are implied.
Disobedience to God's personal instruction to us is sin. There are some things the Holy Spirit will tell us individually we can or can't do and when we veer away from that, we are in sin.
Thank you for your faithfulness and transparency.
