Discernment is not judging based on my own will. Correcting is not condemning, if so there would be no salvation for anyone. For salvation is the power of correction.

 

Discernment is not judging based on my own will. What do I say this?

 

Because. Jesus says in John 5:30  “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.


Discernment for us is not based on our opinions or our own will but on the will of the Lord.


Why was Christ crucified? Is it for nothing? That we continue in sin? No. So for that, discernment is not judging based on my own will, but the will of my father who is in heaven and sent his son to die in our place so we may live according to his will.


Correcting is not condemning, if so there would be no salvation for anyone. For salvation is the power of correction. Why do I say this?





Because. John 3; 17-18 says For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.


What is Believe?

Believe- accept (something) as true; feel sure of the truth.

Now anyone who does not want to live in correction loves darkness and does not believe in God.


Obedience believes and trusts truth. Disobedience does not believe and is not willing to trust the truth.


Why do I say this? 


John 3: 19-21 says this is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.  


Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.




When we come to Jesus we are going in the light. Believing and acting in His truth is the light. He gives us mercy so that we will live in his truth, with a repented heart knowing what we have done; we have done in the sight of God. 


Reconciliation -the restoration of friendly relations with God.

Correcting is not condemning, if so there would be no salvation for anyone. 


For salvation is the power of correction, that gives us Reconciliation with God.


This is the Power of Correction.
