I CANNOT SAVE WHAT ISN'T LOST

I CANNOT SAVE WHAT ISN'T LOST

If there is any part of your body, soul, mind, will, or emotions that you feel is good enough to present to Me, then I cannot completely save you. If there is a single compartment that you hold up as worthwhile, then you are self righteous, judgmental and legalistic in that area. The so called worthwhile area becomes the unclean area of your life. It appears good to you but filthy to me, "(you) are all as an unclean thing , and all (your) righteousnesses is as filthy rags; and (you) do fade as a leaf; and (your) iniquities, like the wind, have taken (you) away." Isaiah 64:6 (KJV) 

A person who never smoked will not be as patient with one kicking the habit, as one who has been previously delivered from smoking. Because of the lack of experience, the non-smoker will tend to be harsh and judgmental with any relapse or withdrawal symptoms. The nonsmoker is in this case a self righteous nonsmoker. You must remember "The Pharisee that took his stand ostentatiously and began to pray thus before and with himself: God, I thank You that I am not like the rest of men--extortioners (robbers), swindlers unrighteous in heart and life, adulterers--or even like this tax collector here."... for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted. Luke 18:11,14 (AMP) 

It is very difficult to convince a religious person that they are as lost as the drug dealer or hooker on the street corner.  They say they are not perfect, "BUT" and that "BUT" blocks their salvation. For judgment I (came) into this world, that they which see not (the hooker) might see; and that they which see (the religious self righteous) might be made blind." John 9:39 (KJV).  One day a group of pastors were trying to trap Me and I told them, "that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before (they did)." Matthew 21:31 (KJV) They wanted to kill Me right then and there.

Please understand that, it is not the act of sin that disqualifies you, it's the fact of sin. Pointing out the bad things a sinner does is a waste of time, because he or she is not going to hell because of what they do, it's what they don't do. If they don't receive My forgiveness and let My blood cleanse the fact of sin, the original sin they were born into, they will parish. (How will you) escape appropriate retribution if (you) neglect and refuse to pay attention to such a great salvation as is now offered to (you), letting it drift past (you) forever?" ...  Hebrews 2:3 (AMP)

Sin has saturated every part of the human soul, lost is lost, you cannot be lost, yet have a single piece of your being found. You will never fully embrace My grace until you recognize how fully lost you are without it.  ..."by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" Romans 5:12 (KJV)  I came to save the lost and the lost are the only ones I can save. "For the Son of man came to save from the penalty of eternal death that which was lost." Matthew 18:11 (AMP) 

I did not commission you to go into all the world and preach against sin, I said, ..."Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature of the whole human race."Mark 16:15 (AMP)  Please let My Holy Spirit "convict and convince the world and bring demonstration to it about sin and about righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God) and about judgment: [9] About sin, because they do not believe in Me trust in, rely on, and adhere to Me; [10] About righteousness (uprightness of heart and right standing with God), because I go to My Father, and you will see Me no longer; [11] About judgment, because the ruler (evil genius, prince) of this world Satan is judged and condemned and sentence already is passed upon him." John 16:8-11 (AMP)
