"Oh, but The Lord knows my Heart!"

Journal Entry: Thu Jun 5, 2008, 10:24 PM
Oh, yes...he KNOWS your heart alright....




During my 11th grade year, there was a young man that was...I did not know if he were christian or not. He had a reputation of getting all the girls "if you know what I mean" and his mouth poured out profanities. Words fail me a bit, but I do remember the teacher asking him a question on God.

I forgot exactly what the question was, but I do remember him replying, "The Lord knows my heart!" In other words, despite all the sinfulness that he submits to, it does not matter just as long as he loves God.

Here is a prime example of scripture being taken out of context. Yes, in Matthew 22:37-39 it states the greatest commandments by God Himself:

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.


Yes, of course, but where in the whole doctrine of Christianity does it states that we can gracefully abound to sin just because we have Christ in us? The answer...you won't find it, because in Romans 6:1-4 says it outrightly:


What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.



You are no longer of the flesh. Therefore, you should not live after the desires of it. (romans 6:12-14)













:bulletblue:How can I discern a false christian from a real one?



Then of course...there's the question of is this person really born again or not. How could a person tell a Christian from an unbeliever? The Lord says that you'll know them by their fruits.


A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
(Matthew 7:15-20)


These are people that shouts GLORY-GLORY or Lord-Lord at church, but the Love of God is in them not. Some are false prophets; wolves in sheep's clothing. Now also there are the Christians that back slides. Meaning, these are born again Christians, but they have gone astray from the Shepherd. These Christians can not hope to serve both good and evil. Christ said it himself that one can not serve two masters.

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. (matt 6:24)


Back sliders will not lose their salvation, nor would any one that accepted Christ would lose their salvation, BUT the Lord said that the wages of sin is death. If you back slide into sinfulness, you are placing yourself in the areas of death all over again.

ALSO...these moderan christians...that also abides by the great commandments, "love thy neighbor, love thy God", but in the midst of their dedication, they support immoral agendas such as homosexuality.


Once again, where in the Christian Doctrine does it says that we should love thy neighbor and tolerate sin?? Answer...you won't find it. Remember the woman caught in adultery and how the Lord forgave her, and told her to sin no more:


10When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

11She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.



It's easy to see that Christ did NOT tolerate her sin. He forgave her, yes, but he didn't tell her to continue in it. This is the message. God does not tolerate sin. Period.



So if some slick guy or girl living a worldly God forbidden life proudly admits to the Lord "knowing his heart" in means of justifying sin, then you could say," Yes...the Lord knows your heart. By the way, the Lord made it clear...he will not be mocked."




Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
Galatians 6:7



So please you people...you can't try to pretend as if you think the Lord is okay with your immoral choices, nor can you pretend to be a christian when you don't follow after doctrine as it is written...and you certainly can't be a hypocrite.

You can't support homosexuality or any sinfulness and expect the Lord to honor that you love Him. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Choose life.




I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

(Deuteronomy 30:19)

So true.
I hope he has/will changed his ways.
I can't stand guys like that who think they are masculine because they lead sinful lives.
I spit on that kind of fake manliness!!!
a real man will treat a woman as a lady and will not sleep around.

I am still a virgin. I hope to remain one until marriage.
I just think guys and girls who give themselves freely must have little regard for themselves and must care little for their partners too.
:iconcasandrakiske:
It's always interesting to read your point of view. I don't completely agree with it, but at least you can back up an argument.

i am also a virgin. I'm still waiting for my God sent husband.

The more i see how the world lives and misuse sex, it makes me want to cling to what i have. Of course, it is not by my own strength that I am able to hold to my virginity.

All thanks be to God and only Him.

Christianity is being misused by hypocrites, and because of their misquoting of scriptures, they cause other Christians to stumble. I'm simply defending the faith for what it is; not what people think.
