Nothing you have is earned in God's eyes because we are sinners. If it is material or your own special physical gifts or gifts of the mind. It is given in mercy from God. And God gives abundantly to all. Therefore we are to live in a way that we are self-aware that we are given everything in mercy. Once we realize that God wants us to be to eachother like He is for us, then the mercy part is really something to live by.
This also accounts for how God would want us to spread the Gospel. As you are saved in the mercy of God. It is important to show that God has great mercy for those who want to repent and distance themselves from sin. The word "great" is to be found in all the sins you can think of. Take the apostle Paul, who persecuted Christians, even to death. Even he received mercy. Understand this much: The choice to choose for God, even outweighes getting killed unrepented. The killer who later repents can go to heaven, while the one unrepented but killed goes to hades. That is why you should not take your time with God contemplating if you will repent or not.
So, as the content author of this website, I received mercy from God to write about Him. The website is not really mine, I am not mine, but the words are mine. Allthough I pray to be guided in the writings. All I own is not really mine. God made everything. God made me, all that I am, body, spirit and soul is His property. And I was given all of that in mercy. Not (really) to do with it as I please, but in free will to follow in His footsteps. The footsteps of the Son of God, Jesus Christ. Only through Him we receive mercy for our sins, and we are counted righteous through faith in Him.
A man cannot do anything good by works to compensate for sin. A man's works, however good he thinks it is, are as filthy rags for God. That is why we need mercy from God. The only way is get that is to choose for God. Thus Repent.
Because from the beginning of birth until the time of repentance we did do as we pleased with the temple of God. And we desecrated the temple of God. Until we realized that life is eternal, and that there are only two ends, the one is eternal damnation and the other is eternal glory. And to gain glory is to deny yourself and follow Jesus Christ.
Really, at some point in your life when you realize that evolution is one big hoax. Because it is calculable and studying the dynamics in a single living cell and its composition, you'll see there is no chance at all that life can come of none-life. The wise of this world are, when you realize this, unwise. And you will realize that your life is purposed by a great higher power, the God of Israel. Then you understand you have been given a choice: Am I going to take red pill or the blue one?
And there is a striking parallel here with the movie that we know so well, the red pill - (lets say repentance) - will make you see the things that were hidden from you for so long - because you stayed in sin. Once you have received mercy your eyes will be opened through the Word of God. You will see how dark this world is, and how you have stayed in the dark, and you will see your own darkness. And in mercy you will see who God is, His Righteousness and Holiness. But, If you take the blue pill then you just stay in this world, in sin, and make the best of it, but the eternal end is to say the least very uncomfortable.
Sorry, for drifting away a bit, but God wants people to be saved, as many people as possible through His servants.
The point here is, if I am effectively and responsibly to write about God then it is most imparative that I find the way He wants to be revealed to the others than myself. And His mercy should shine through the whole context of the words written. Amen.
