God pays no attention to what others say (or what you think) about you. He makes up his own mind. If you sin without knowing what you're doing, God takes that into account. But if you sin knowing full well what you're doing, that's a different story entirely. Merely hearing God's law is a waste of your time if you don't do what he commands. Doing, not hearing is what makes the difference with God.
'Abraham was declared fit before God by trusting God to set him right.' But it's not just Abraham; it's also us! The same thing gets said about us when we embrace and believe the One who brought Jesus to life when the conditions were equally hopeless. The sacrificed Jesus made us fit for God, set us right with God.

Ok I'm really confused now... I never get any notifications that you are posting on here, so I thought you must have temporarily stopped posting on here. Then I randomly clicked the link from Randocology and found out you are still doing all your wonderful posts on here! Ok well I will start making sure I check this blog out more for new posts.
Ah, well I wasn't posting for some time, but I'm trying to get back to it! Though I post more often on randocology. Thanks for visiting, and thanks for the comment!! OX
