sin

so.
i am inclined to think something. yes. think. i have been. and will continue.


i have a thought derived from John 3:16.

If God loves the WHOLE world, then...
He loves every body.

However...
Does God love murders, child-molestors, druggies, homosexuals, human traffickers, poachers, etc...???

notice, all the above are all sinners.
all of the above i have taken people. people who sin.
or people who have committed sin.
i have just identified them with their sin.

so simply put... God loves people.
not their identitys.

past their identification of sin.
whatever you identify yourself with, you become.
does this mean, they are animals?
no. they are people. that sin.


HUMAN NATURE.



but i am sure i have committed murder in my heart when i have thought a hateful thought.


what am i to say then? because i sin...
human nature.

but, i identify myself with Christ, not my sin.
still apt to sin, but i have the Holy Spirit.



does God still love these people? regular people?



yes.



because i am capable and apt to the same sins.
don't ever tell me i am perfect. i am not.


God hates sin. He doesn't hate me though.
He certainly does not hate people.
He hates their sin.

God's grace is farther than my mind can comprehend.
He is not foolish with it, He is merely extravagant.




i think i am done...... for now.
