When do accomplish good things or things that are normally beyond our means, some of us give God the credit... rightfully so. Some of us aren't so good to always give Him the credit.
But when we fail... some of are also good to give God the credit. I wouldn't have done that sin, if God would have given me the ability not to do it.
There are of course some who believe that God "won't let" you fail. ..yet the funny thing is... those same
people will tell you they fail every day. They sin almost all the time.
So if God gets "all" the credit... does that mean He gets the credit when we fail? Let me explain a little here.
It may be that we prayed for something like, God help me get a raise, or a new car, or that my team will win.
But it's possible God doesn't want you have a raise, or a new car, or even that your team will win.
On the other hand... God never wants us to sin. But sometimes Christians do. Some are even quick to remind
you, "I can do nothing without Jesus, He gets all the credit". But then they turn around and continue living a
life of sin... some even give the credit to Jesus for this.
Heh heh... God must not not really mind me doing those sins... He hasn't stopped me yet.
God won't let me fail.... so whatever I'm doing must be OK with Him.
That way we can give Him credit for extra grace.
You can't really have it both ways. Either God lets you fail, or He doesn't. Again, I'm not talking about doing a miracle here, I'm simply talking about not sinning. The same God that lets you make your choices to fail, will also let you make the choices to fall "too far".
Some of us need to "man up" (or woman up as the case may be) and take responsibility for our own failings.
Instead of giving God the credit for us sinning. We need to take the credit for it.
God will let you sin as much as you want to. If you decide to make a lifestyle of it... God will let you.
We prove this every single time we sin.... God lets us do what we want to do.
One thing that has been proven of the course of many threads over man years. Is that those who believe God won't you go "too far". Have a lot looser standard of what "too far" is. Because what ever sin I'm doing must be OK with God... because he wouldn't let me do it, if it wasn't OK.
