1 Corinthians 6:9-10, 11

This weekend has been well. I would summarize it. However, something happened... I was going through the mini feed on facebook and started crying over something that I read. It breaks my heart to see and read a student's status that says they don't want to be with God. Complete misinterpretation of the word could lead someone to hell instead of inheriting the kingdom.

"Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexual immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. " 1 Cor. 6:9-10

No doubt that God is very clear regarding these issues. He loves everybody more than anything, and to prove that in Jesus. I can't believe that an adult parent would support this student's misinterpretation of these verses. Exhaustion hits me, and tears start to fall down my lids. If only they read through it and read the next verse... "and that is what some of you were. but you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of God". verse 11...

What got me the most is that other students tried resolving the negativity on this status by writing positive comments. I love it! To see jr high students standing firm with their faith. Being their for their friends and proclaiming the gospel. It is so wonderfully written, I cried even more. Unfortunately the other side always has some response that is completely inviable against God. Perhaps they should educate themselves more by reading more of what the bible says and seeking counsel. Rather than jumping into a conclusion that God may love everybody, but sure does hate a lot of people. In which the statement itself is a contradictory. God loves everybody! Amen! He doesn't hate a lot of people. He is just. I won't go around the bible to prove anything. Because it could lead to a lot more confusion. I'm sticking w/ 1 Corinthians 6:9-11.

It is a blessing to be involve in youth ministry. To see God working in these young men & women's lives is phenomenal. I just want to praise God for letting His Spirit work on some of these kids. The devil is always just around the corner. And there's always going to be doubt and blame. We're always going to sin. Jesus dies on the cross every time we sin. We're always going to be frustrating God. However, Jesus died for our sins as a payment for all of our misbehaving. God mentioned a list of people who won't inherit the kingdom. And He give us all a chance to inherit everlasting life if we accept Him in us. He wants us all in His kingdom because being with him would be everlasting. Being in sin, is mostly temporary. I want to live an everlasting life. I want everyone to do so as well. It burdens me to see those who were in love with Christ, to walk away from Him because of what the world's got to offer. It also inspires me to see young women stepping up in their faith and praying for their friends. There is hope and I have faith. And that is it for now. Time for bed.
