RIGHT OR WRONG
Col 3:25
25 Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism.
NIV
This is a hard pill to shallow. What does this mean? God will repay me for my doing wrong. I understand this is part of the slave doing for the master part. I understand the concept here that an employee should work with all his heart for his employer and that is he cheats his employer that is wrong and God will see that, and repay him for his wrong. But how does he do that? God simply cannot show favoritism or in order words I understand he does not respect one person more than another. All people including me are the same in his eyes. I also understand he does not count the outward circumstances of my life, but counts the condition of my heart. If my heart is right, then I will do what is right. If the condition of my heart is wrong, then I will do what is wrong. I am going to make mistakes, a nice word for sin. I know I am not perfect; I am going to fail him, another nice word for sin. Is that considered the wrong here? I have to identify with Paul here. The things I want to do (the condition of my heart) I don’t always do and the things I don’t want to do( not the condition of my heart) I do at times. My heart is in the right place at least most of the time. Wait a minute, how can that be? What am I saying here about myself? Do I really change the condition of my heart? I don’t think so, but how do I do what is wrong if the condition of my heart is bent toward what is right? I am just a man, like all others. This has to boil down to the simple fact that accepting Christ into my life is what is right and thus traveling with God allowing him to work in my life is good and just. On the other hand, refusing Christ is simply the wrong thing to do and anyone who refuses will be repaid for making the wrong choice. Ever person has that right to that choice; God does not favor one over another. I think I feel better now. But I still have to work.
