“Then said he also to him that bade him,
When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbors; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee. But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind: And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.” Luke 14 v12-14 AKJV
To be like Jesus. “the resurrection of the just”-what does that mean? to what measure is the just, just….?
“Thus he shewed me: and, behold, the Lord stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand.” Amos 7 v7 AKJV
“Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land fail, Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsying the balances of deciet?” Amos 8 v4,5 AKJV
To find the balance in today’s murkey world of morality. The true balance has been swayed back and forth for political balance and deciet seems to have been played into the very word-morality-, and under an attempt to be all inclusive.
I heard a minister this past Sunday-Sabbath- tell of one way to heaven, through, by faith, accepting the grace of Jesus Christ.
Leading to Godly repentance, meaning a desire to repent due to the change God has made in ones life, is the true measure of just being just.
Lord, this day is yours. I thank you. Amen
