Jesus Is The Friend Of Sinners , but hates all sin !
MATTHEW 11:19 NKJ
19-The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say,
`Look, a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of tax
collectors and sinners!'. . . .
Jesus had trouble with the religious leaders of His day,
because He was a friend of sinners. Jesus is the same today. He
never changes. Jesus is your friend , but he doesn't want you
to sin !
LUKE 19:7 NKJ
7 But when they saw it, they all murmured, saying,[ He has gone
to be a guest with a man who is a sinner. ]
Religious people couldn't understand how Jesus could love a
sinner , they certainly did not. But Jesus did, and He still
does.
Notice what Jesus said to the woman caught in the act of
adultery.
JOHN 8:11 NKJ
11- She said, [ No one, Lord. ] And Jesus said to her, [ Neither do
I condemn you; go and sin no more. ]
Jesus does not condemn you for your sin. He understands. He
came to earth and lived in a human body just as you do.
Jesus knows the pressure you face. He knows the pain. And Jesus
cares. He cares enough to help you be free of the sin; because
He knows that sin will destroy you.
Sin may give a temporary pleasure, but in the end sin always
destroys. Jesus loves you too much to want you to be destroyed !
So Jesus is against sin because He loves you !
Please know this , Jesus is your friend , but he hates sin !
Let's not use Jesus love for us as a reason to ignore sin .
God bless all in Jesus name ! :boy_hug: Mike
