Sun Msg: God Repays Everyone According To Their Deeds, Whether They Are Good or Evil. Love the Lord Perfectly and Sincerely, Then Everything Will Be Resolved.

Scriptures: Revelation 20:11-14 & 22:11-15

In today’s scriptures, Jesus says God repays everyone according to what they have done.  Jesus has repaid every person according to their deeds.  Whether you do good or bad, you are repaid accordingly.  This is the law of justice.

Do people treat other people fairly in the world?  Because we are not almighty and because we are not the supreme being, we truly don’t treat people according to their deeds.  We treat people based on our feelings and our ignorance.  We treat people according to our own mentalities.

In the end, God and Jesus are the absolute being of justice, therefore they repay back every single person according to their deeds, not missing even one stroke, or one dot.  God repays those who do good with goodness.  Those who have done good shine on judgment day, but those who have done evil will be judged and condemned.

God does not cause the good to go through suffering at the hands of the wicked.  It’s just that the wicked treat the righteous out of their own ignorance and being controlled by satan.  In those times, we must overcome and pray.  Prayer defeats satan and drives away evil.  This is why we must pray at this time and we must overcome.  If we don’t pray like this, we lose heart because it doesn’t make sense why we are going through sufferings despite doing good.

Sometimes those who do good wonder why God allows the wicked to torment the good.  But we see through the Bible that eventually the good are always rewarded and the wicked are always judged and dealt with accordingly.  God pays back everyone for their deeds on the designated day.  Since we do not know when this day will come, we must pray.  Exert yourself to be even more faithful and draw even closer to God during the hard times.

Look at the case of Job.  He was the man of endurance.  Satan took away Job’s wealth, his health, and even his family.  Satan tormented him in all kinds of ways, but Job endured.  After the torment ended, God appeared and judged those who tormented Job and rewarded him even more than before.

Consider a field.  There are crops that grow as well as weeds that grow.  The crops complain to the farmer because they have to grow along with the weeds.  But the farmer will pull out the weeds at the designated time because he doesn’t want to pull them out too early otherwise the crops might also be pulled out.  In this way, know that God has a designated time to judge the wicked, and you shouldn’t complain and ask God why he is not getting rid of all the wicked people that are tormenting them. God surely will repay back accordingly on the day of judgment.

Satan is satan even if what he says is 100% correct.  You must never accept satan.  During times of tribulations, if you listen to the words of the wicked, you will eventually become tested and go through all kinds of suffering.  You must lock up the doors of your heart firmly and never open the door to the wicked.  Lock up your hearts firmly.  Even for a person who loves the Lord, if they don’t do righteous deeds, they are subject to suffering.  The Lord surely repays everyone according to their deeds.  If you repent, forgiveness will come, but you still need to pay.

We must never sin.  It would be easy if all we needed to do is repent and then be forgiven.  But even after we have been forgiven, we still need to receive the punishment for the sin.  Punishment and repentance is setting a condition to completely get rid of the sin.  (Luke 19:8).

Another way sins can be dealt with is from Ezekiel 3:19-21 where Ezekiel pays for the sins of the sinners.  In the same way, Jesus bore the cross for the sinners and saved all of mankind.

Righteousness is like money.  It’s hard to make money, but it’s easy to spend it.  It takes a whole year to build up that money, but it only takes 1 moment to get rid of all of that.  Even if you have built up righteousness for 10 years, all you need to do is commit the fall or leave God’s history, and all of that goes to nothing.  This is why we must be careful before we do anything.

What is the use of blaming those who tempted and enticed you?  These are people who are already on their way to hell, what is the use of blaming them?  You commit sins because you allow for it to happen and because you like it.  You must admit your own responsibilities, repent, and turn to the path of righteousness.  You lead yourself to heaven, and you lead yourself to hell.  Your human responsibility is so great and so critical.  You must be careful every day and in everything that you do.  Do things centered on the Lord.  Be patient and endure.

How long will Jesus have to wait?  How long will Jesus have to stand there knocking  on a heart that is not answering?  There is a set day that the owner must harvest, this is why Jesus asked for just one more year.  But now it is the time to reap and harvest.

Whoever you may be, you must put Jesus first and let go of your physical nature and thoughts.  If you truly love the Lord, you will be able to do it.  There is a way for you to immediately become one with Jesus and change in a fast way.  It is only through love.  Love is the way of the highest righteousness.

If there is a man that many women want.  He will not take the woman that dedicates all her money to him.  He will not take the woman who learns all of the things he likes and dislikes.  He will not take the woman that will follow him no matter what.  He will only take the woman that devotes all her love and life to him.  We must become worthy, through love.

The most secretive seal of all, is the seal of love.  Even if someone breaks all the seals of the Bible, but does not break the seal of love, they cannot be the person Jesus works through.  Jesus is the essence of love, so he must fulfill love with us.  The secret of the rapture and the secret of receiving the Lord, is love.  Those who firmly believe Jesus as the Messiah are numerous, but those who truly and absolutely love Jesus, are so few.

Love is power, Love is wisdom, Love is faith, Love makes all things come true.  Love enables us to overcome all things.  Love unites us with Jesus.  Love gives us joy and gives us hope.  Love makes us strong.  Love enables us to exert all of our energy to prepare for the second coming.  Love makes you the brides of the Lord and enter heaven.
