Some folks say they are Christians, yet sometimes you can’t tell the difference. It is because they have not been transformed from their old ways nor have they adopted the principles and ways of God. 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 tells us that anyone who is in Christ or of Christ is a new creature; old things are passed away and everything becomes new. All things are of God, who hath reconciled us to Himself through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ.

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,” 2 Corinthians 5:17-18

Romans 12:1-2 tells us what and how we should be as Christians. We should present our bodies as a living sacrifice that is holy and acceptable unto God  which is our reasonable service as His children, and be not conformed to this world but be totally transformed by renewing our mind. It is not okay to go party and dance to the devils music, because that is glorifying the devil and not God. We can’t serve two masters as Matthew 6:24 and Luke 16:13 tells us. Psalm 1:1 tells us that blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly…” when you walk in the counsel of the ungodly, then you are no different from those who don’t believe in the gospel of Christ or God Himself.

Ephesians 1:4 “…Just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love…”

Leviticus 20:6, 7 “And the person who turns to mediums and familiar spirits, to prostitute himself with them, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from his people. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.”

Leviticus 20:6 and 7 not only tells us to consecrate ourselves and be holy, but it also points out that those who turn to mediums and familiar spirits (divination; ‘illegal’ activity in the spiritual realm) will be cut off. This is why it is important for the child of God to not get involved in such associations or activities.

1 John 1:3 tells us that as Christians our fellowship is with God our heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. When we fellowship with our brothers and sisters in Christ, even then we are fellowshipping God and His Son (Matthew 18:20). God does not want us to put anything or anyone before Him because that’s idolatry. When we go to parties and clubs you are fellowshipping with the devil and his demons. 1 John 1:5-8 explains it best, “…God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all; if we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.” Verse 9 says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

For the person who is half with God and half without God, Psalm 51:10 is a prayer they should pray or include in their prayer; For God to create a clean heart in them. Truthfully we all should ask God to create in us a clean heart, especially  when we’ve followed our own desires above God’s will and Word. In Revelation 3:15,16 God says He would rather you be hot or cold, but if you are luke warm or half and half He will have to spew you out.

When we sin we become unclean. If we already have a relationship with God and we sin we cause a hindrance to that relationship. God’s ten commandments is our clean list, including the one Jesus adds which is to love your neighbor as yourself.

Psalm 139:23 “Search me O God, and know my heart today, try me, O Savior, know my thoughts I pray. See if there be any wicked way in me, cleanse me from every sin and set me free.”

The offer to receive Christ into your heart is still here. To receive that offer go to the Salvation page at the top of this blog and follow the instructions. If you have turned away from God, there is a strong possibility that He is waiting for you to turn back to Him; rededicate yourself to Him. You are already reconciled to God by Christ, the next step is yours.

All glory, honor, praise and thanks go to God for using me to deliver this message. I pray that He will give all who read this message the spiritual gifts necessary to comprehend and act upon His word. I exercise my power and authority in the name of Jesus to bind every tactic of the enemy that will try to stop, hinder, or prevent this word from reaching its intended people. I ask the Lord to loose the Holy Spirit and the Heavenly angels to secure this word so that it reaches its intended people, according to Matthew 16:19 and Luke 10:19 in the Omnipotent name of Jesus, Amen.
