Search Results: does he only think of me as a friend

In my biblical opinion, the issue with Racism is SIN. Jealousy, envy, unforgiveness, pride, hatred, etc. all play a role in racism. In spite of our past, we make choices over our decisions. Sin is knowing something is wrong but still doing it. "Therefore to him, that knows to do good, and does it not, to him it is SIN" ( James 4:17 KJV). When it comes to SIN, we are all guilty. "If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." (1 John 1:8 KJV). We have spoken at least one thing bad about someone before, texted and drove, lied to our parents, teachers, friends, siblings, spouse, etc. I can speak on most familiar sins but I think we all get the point. All it takes is ONE sin to be guilty. "For whosoever breaks one commandment is guilty of breaking them all" (James 2:10 GNT).

Here is the good news; God knew we could not ever keep the commandments. So He sent his Son, Jesus, who was crucified, died on a tree (cross) to die for all sinners. This world will only get worse because we have been warned by God of the end times. We need love in our hearts, mental and physical healing. I invite you to come to Christ. You do not need drugs or alcohol to cope throughout the day. If you call upon the Son of God, Jesus, he will save you and set you free from SIN. (1John 1:9 KJV) If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness". (Romans 6:23 KJV) " For the wages (reward) of SIN is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord". Notice how it says, through Jesus Christ. We cannot be saved any other way. If you really believe, He will save you but to believe is to accept the gospel as truth. "That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved" (Romans 10:9 KJV). I pray this blesses you in Jesus name!
