For what is the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul (Job 27:8)? There is an appointed time we have to appear before God for the life we have lived, there will be no excuses for what we did or didn’t do. Many are in church and living opposite of what God has instructed every Christian to live by. We cannot live and have fellowship with God, when we’re living in disobedient of His Word. How many times have you been in Church and the Spirit of God was moving in the congregation, but you didn’t feel His Spirit? Matter of fact, when were living according to God’s Word not only will He meet us in the Church, but we can feel His presence in our homes. In order to have fellowship with God, we have to realize we’re in need of His help, and He will help, when we ask Him to help us to live according to His Word.
Christianity is not a bunch of rules of does and don’t; the Bible which is God’s written word is for the believers instructions to live by, it’s our passport to Heaven. Satan have blinded the eyes of those who want to live for God, but yet live according to their desires,but when we do, it hinders us from growing in the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit will not be in manifestation when we live according to our fleshly desires. You may not be committing fornication or adultery, but you’re watching it on television and if it’s a series, you’re watching every series with expectation. As Christians we can’t be consumed with the things of the world, there is nothing wrong with watching television, but it’s what you’re watching that is killing your relationship with the Father. What we watch and hear goes into our spirit and will stunt our spiritual growth.
Many Christians attend church, but never have a set time to read and study God’s Word, they don’t have fast days and they wonder why they aren’t growing spiritually. The Bible gives us instructions in how to grow spiritually,but if the individual never takes the time to read the Word, how can they be doers of what they aren’t aware of? God holds every Christian responsible for their spiritual growth, and its more than attending church once a week. As Christians we cannot participate in everything that the world is doing; we are in the world, but we’re not of the world. Spiritual adultery is just a bad as physical adultery (Ye adulterers and adulteress, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God – James 4:4). We will either serve the Creator of the Universe or we will serve the father of lies, Satan. We cannot live according to the world standards and believe we will go to heaven, that’s a lie from Satan to keep people hell bound (Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you – 2nd Corinthians 6:17).
God has an everlasting love for us, but He will not allow sin to enter into His kingdom, if we die in our sins, in hell shall we lift up our eyes (And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life – Revelation 21:27). It’s so much hypocrisy in the church, and it shouldn’t be; Christian night clubs, Christian stepping, envy, jealousy, gossiping, unbelief and doubt; the very thing God has instructed Christians not to do, is what they are doing .
Most employers have an employee handbook, it’s the responsibility of the employee to read the manual and get familiar with the guidelines. If the employee does something that is against the rules in the handbook they can be fired because of negligence of not reading the rules. God’s Word has authority over any rule man can make, and just like the employer, if the people of God does not comply to what is written in the handbook of the Lord, they will miss Heaven and end up in hell, and yes God will still love you, but He will not go against His Word. Too many times people are being preached to about how much God loves them and not telling them, God loves them, but if they don’t comply to the Word of God they are hell bound.
Every Christian is held responsible for their dedication to God, and His Word, don’t compare yourself to others, but compare yourself to the Word of God, and when we do that, we can always see where we need more of His help to live this Christian life.

Spiritual Jew
But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God (Romans 2:28-29) To be a Jew meant you were in God’s family, an heir to all His promises. The Jews was God’s chosen and all other nationalities were considered as Gentiles (uncircumcised), but Jesus came and adopted us into the family of God, circumcising our hearts. God’s desire for His people is to be circumcised in our hearts and not the outward appearance or religious acts. To be in the family of God means more than attending church, working in different auxiliaries, but there must be a spiritual change in our spirit and in our hearts. Jesus, the Son of God comes and resides in our hearts and makes us spiritual Jews. As Christians we’re adopted in the family of God through Jesus our Savior. Every promise that has been written in God’s Word is for every Christian that has submitted themselves to God and His Son. What we need is in God’s Word, every Word of God is true, what He promised that He will do. In order for us to be receivers of the blessings, we must submit ourselves to the Word of God. The majority of the people you would ask if they are Christians would say yes, but still practice sin on a daily basis. We must be transformed in our spirit and in our hearts. There should be a difference from a Christian and an unbeliever, Christians don’t watch and participate in things that would bring a approach to their spirit or their belief. Christians should be Christ-like; we should be aware of the Spirit of God indwelling our human spirit, reverencing Him in what we say and what we do. When the Spirit of Christ is dwelling within our being, we don’t have the same desires we had when we were unbelievers. Our thinking changes, our behavior changes, our desires is to please our Father and not ourselves. We’re aware of how we conduct ourselves because we don’t want to be a hinderance to a new believer as well as the unbeliever’s faith in God. In order for us to see the move of God in us and in our churches, we as Christians must step it up in our dedication to God. Just as faithful as the Jews are to God, we must be just as faithful to the Father and the Son because you can’t accept God and reject the Son, and you can’t have the Son and reject the Father they are a team, they are one, but function in different roles. It was holiness from the beginning and God is still requiring holiness. We have been bought with a price, Jesus died for our sins, it would be senseless for Him to die for our sins if we were to continue in sin; that was the reason He died so that we could be reconcile to the Father; to live a life that would be pleasing in His sight. (But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, peculiar people, that ye should show for the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light – 1st Peter 2:9).
