Category: Denying Jesus

Matthew 10:33 (NKJV) 33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

We recently received a text message from an unidentified person whose text message said only this: “I Don’t acknowledge you Jesus Christ”.

That text message saddened me, and it got me pondering on some things.

As I was pondering on it over the course of several days, here is what the Holy Spirit told me in a matter of just a few seconds yesterday.

We can deny Jesus, but that will never undo what He did for us.

His sacrifice still stands. And His blood that was shed will be no less powerful because of our denial.

The only loss suffered because of our denial is our own. We gain nothing and lose everything by denying the One who died for us.

We can deny Him, but God’s love for humanity will not be changed.

Why?

Because in Him there is no darkness. There is only light and truth. There is no danger of Him changing who He is. He never changes.

And although He may occasionally chasten His people, His love remains steadfast. And it’s because of His love that He does discipline us.

That discipline proves His love for us.

So, it behooves us to be careful of what we say, not letting our emotions overtake us and cause us to say something that we later wish we hadn’t said.

And remember what Jesus said; “whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father”.

This alone should be enough to keep us from denying Him. And if we have denied Him in a moment of anger or frustration, the best thing we can do is to immediately repent and sincerely ask God for His forgiveness.

Because He is steadfast, He will be faithful to do so.
