EVERY WRONGDOER HATES JESUS

EVERY WRONGDOER HATES JESUS

DOC LYNCH

I didn't make that up. God put it in His Gospel to let us know that hating Jesus, hating Him, hating the Holy Spirit, will not be tolerated.

John 3:20 (AMP) – "For every wrongdoer hates (loathes, detests) the Light, and will not come out into the Light but shrinks from it, lest his works (his deeds, his activities, his conduct) be exposed and reproved."

Jesus here is referred to as The Light. The Light has come to expose the Darkness.

The Light, The very BRIGHT LIGHT, makes those in darkness BLINK.

It is every bit as harsh and disturbing as having a spotlight flashed into your eyes upon awakening in a darkened room.

The analogy is quite startling. It's because that is EXACTLY what you have been all the time you have rejected Jesus. It is as if you have been living your entire life sequestered in a DARK ROOM. Not only that, but you have mingled with and associated with strictly with others from very DARK places as well.

You didn't know there was another way until THE Light came.

It happened to me and I accepted The Light. I ran toward it. The minute I got a whiff of the freshness of what Jesus represented and was offering me, I ran to it. Half my life was darkness. The latter half has been in the freshness of The Light.

What will YOU do with The Light today?

In your total darkness no one else is coming for you. Not even good friends who recognize your self imposed solitary confinement in the Dungeon of Darkness can help you. Even pointing you to The Light, while a great service for you, is non-effective until you stop pulling the blanket up over you and rolling over.

"EVERY wrongdoer hates Jesus."

Are you a wrongdoer today?

Perhaps. And you might even argue that you don't hate Jesus. You just don't LOVE Him.

You may even claim you love Him, but is it mere words? Or do you REALLY love Jesus?

What do your actions and lifestyle suggest?

Matthew 7:16 (AMP) – "You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles."

The thorns and the thistles, even the DARNEL, live among the healthy wheat. Even the fakes, posers, and pretenders.

What are you?

Are you the WHEAT on Sunday? The DARNEL (fake non-nutritious wheat) the rest of the week?

How is what I call your "FOUL FACTOR"? Your MOUTH, your LANGUAGE, your ACTIONS?

It's amazing how many people I know some "believers", most not, who find some sort of great pleasure in flipping their middle finger up whenever they have their picture taken.

Foul defiance. Do they LOVE Jesus? They act like they hate Him.

Foul Jesus haters drop the "F-Bomb" and other choice expletives (including His Name in vain) all through their spoken AND written words. Is this indicative of LOVING JESUS?

I don't know, YOU tell me.

Ephesians 4:29 (AMP) – "Let no foul or polluting language, nor evil word nor unwholesome or worthless talk [ever] come out of your mouth, but only such [speech] as is good and beneficial to the spiritual progress of others, as is fitting to the need and the occasion, that it may be a blessing and give grace (God’s favor) to those who hear it."

Are you blessing people with your talk and actions? Or are you ACTUALLY driving people farther into the DARKNESS?

I have known some people who are crossing from one side to the other so often that I wish they would stop telling people they are a believer. Most of their time is in DARKNESS with their friends from the DARKNESS. There is very little LIGHT in them at all.

THIS is NOT a GAME.

This is for all the marbles over the far more reaching span of eternity.

If there is even one slight chance that your lifestyle and associated actions will prevent you in some way of missing Heaven, than you should reassess.

John 3:21 (AMP) – "But he who practices truth [who does what is right] comes out into the Light; so that his works may be plainly shown to be what they are—wrought with God [divinely prompted, done with God’s help, in dependence upon Him."

There can be no intermingling between Light and Darkness.

If you have stepped out of the DARK place you have been, and come into THE LIGHT, than you will reflect that in who you have become.

SIMPLY put, you are what you portray yourself to be. Not too many will be fooled, and certainly NOT Jesus. He is the Shepherd who knows His flock.

Living apart from Jesus in the DARK, there is a gnawing feeling of uncleanness within you. You sense it. You SMELL it on you. IT's uncomfortable. I'm letting you know that THE LIGHT cleanses that away for good.
