Lately
I've been researching "standing in the way of sinners." You would think
that it means to stop them when they are sinning/obstruct them. NO Sir! Perhaps in a way yes
but no. What it means is if you are reaching out preaching to them you
are helping them to see the light. You are helping them to know the true biblical Christ. But if you come preaching another Christ + paganism,
plus deception you are just like a Pharisee and you are obstructing them
from seeing the truth. The Bible says those who are set free are free
indeed. The son of God being Jesus Christ can set you free. Salvation is of
the Lord as it is written. I have read some articles on this where they
talk about the church congregation and perhaps being unkind to
newcomers. I think it would be logical that if you have friends that
are worldly and they are taking you away from God and lying to you,
perhaps giving you something that is not good then that would be
obstructing your biblical view. That would be standing in the way of
sinners. Perhaps Communist governments as these types countries/nations stand in the way of
sinners. Perhaps religions that are not true stand in the way of
sinners lying to them that hell is fiction and misrepresenting the Christ of the bible. Christ is real and he is
risen and this is a topic your church or your congregation should
discuss. Christians should get to know what this means and obey God.
In essence you should not do as they do. It also means the following.
Psalm 5:9"One of the more common synonyms of stand in the scriptures is establish. So that standing in the way of sinners carries the meaning of establishing oneself in the manners and custom of the sinful world. Ones seat is ones position in the scriptures. When you sit in a certain seat you hold that office."
"For not a word they speak can be trusted; destruction is within them. Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit."
Don't do as they do as Christ told the disciples and Apostles regarding the Pharisees whom sit in Moses seat. Don't stand as they do. Have backbone! You pick up your cross and follow Christ and when you stumble get back up, repent to God in private and make a commitment to yourselves you will do God's WILL.
In summary the God of the bible/Israel is the living God and he exists and is real. So many people ignore God or don't know him and then when something happens they wonder where is God. He is here, there and everywhere. He is that he is but you must search for him. Call on him. Repent and believe on the gospel. Pray in private and for each other. There are generational curses and if you want to be blessed repent and believe on the gospel. Turn from sin as if you were to pass anytime you would see HELL. Its real! We have a sinful nature and we can overcome this by the strength of God, the word of God and his living son Jesus Christ. Get Saved. Call out to Christ and tell him you accept him as lord and savor of your lives. Tell him you repent of your sins and believe on the gospel.
It is TRUE we MUST forgive others or God will not forgive us. Its not boring to follow Christ as there is life walking in the spirit instead of the flesh. There are so many distractions in modern times that will/can take your focus off God. Blessed is the man/woman who mediates on the word of God and is a contrite humble spirit/person walking with God.
There is a wealth of additional information around and you may have friends that are sinners and even meet people that are sinners but YOU are not to be as one/to make it a life following their sinful ways as you have a high priest being Jesus Christ who is the HEAD of the sheep and he tends the fold. You are to GROW spiritually in Christ. You are more valuable than many sparrows as written.
