BLAME

WHAT CAN I DO TO LIVE A BLAMELESS LIFE?

1 Corinthians 1:8 . . . He will keep you strong right up to the end, and he will keep you free from all blame on the great day when our Lord Jesus Christ returns.

Christ is the one who gives us strength and makes us blameless.

Colossians 1:22 . . . Now he has brought you back as his friends. He has done this through his death on the cross in his own human body. As a result, he has brought you into the very presence of God, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.

1 Thessalonians 3:13 . . . As a result, Christ will make your hearts strong, blameless, and holy when you stand before God our Father on that day when our Lord Jesus comes with all those who belong to him.

There is no way that we alone could ever live a blameless life. It is only through Christ dying on the cross that we are found blameless.

SINCE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO LIVE BLAMELESSLY, DOES IT REALLY MATTER IF I GO OUT AND SIN OCCASIONALLY?

Philippians 2:14-15 . . . In everything you do, stay away from complaining and arguing, so that no one can speak a word of blame against you. You are to live clean, innocent lives as children of God in a dark world full of crooked and perverse people. Let your lives shine brightly before them.

Our responsibility is to live as Christ’s examples. To do this, we must keep our hearts and minds pure.

IS BLAMING OTHERS SIN?

Genesis 3:12-13 . . . “Yes,” Adam admitted, “but it was the woman you gave me who brought me the fruit, and I ate it.” Then the Lord God asked the woman, “How could you do such a thing?” “The serpent tricked me,” she replied. “That’s why I ate it.”

We always want to blame others for our sin. But God knows our hearts and is not fooled by our attempts to take the spot light off of our sin.

PROMISE FROM GOD:

2 Corinthians 13:11 . . . Rejoice. Change your ways. Encourage each other. . .  Then the God of love and peace will be with you.
