“But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD” | Psalm 37: 39
We have all heard of putting the cart before the horse.
That summarizes man’s religion.
It inverts the divine order.
It makes forgiveness the end rather than the beginning of salvation.
“The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3: 2-3)
Man’s religion says you must believe before you can have life, rather than you believe because you live.
It says God will if you will, rather than God will and you shall.
It makes man the deciding factor rather than God.
Anything that has man as the deciding factor is doomed for failure.
Thank God, salvation is of the Lord!
